monday, oh monday...

Have spent a large portion of my morning working on the WIP piece. I'm doing pretty damn good these past two days! Woo-hoo. Now the idea is to keep up the pace so that I can get through this damn story. You see, I'm at the part in New Journey where things are starting to be revealed in the plot and Maria has to deal with what's going to happen. So it's an important scene and I just hope I'm doing it justice.

But yesterday after suffering for the first hour, I decided to just go with the flow and worry about everything else in the revision process. That seems to be working much better for me. And I'm kicking some butt.

Now let me keep it up. I asked my fellow pals at wip_a_team for good mojo and they obliged. So yeah. Fingers crossed for me.

I've also decided to wait until I finish A New Journey in its entirety before posting another chapter. This way the remaining chapters will go up at once and I can do any necessary revision to the early chapters at the same time. But y'all will have it to read (chickpea!!!) by the end of July!

Also, is it sad that I made myself a progress spreadsheet today for the wip_it_good challenge? I used one for April Fool's day challenge and it seemed to work and keep me on track - I'm hoping the same works here.

In other news, I'm addicted to Dr. Who. I'm only up to episode four, but it sucked me right in. Oh, evilness! So who knows where I can find some good icons? And then some good fic? Help a Tommy out here, people.

I'm caught up on my Queer As Folk and Entourage as well. I love Entourage so much. Hug it out, bitches! It's the best. As for QAF, the characters are all pissing me off this season so I don't get as excited about it...and I don't like the way people were treating Hunter. Bastards. But Brian is still the hottest man alive. So hot. Gah.

I tivo'd the first two parts of Into the West but haven't had a chance to watch them yet. I wonder how I lived before I had a Tivo. I probably watched a lot less television because I'm so lazy when it comes to taping most things. But I love my Tivo. And I love that it knows me so well and records things that it thinks I'll like because of who's in it.

I'm going to head off for now. I want to get more writing done before my class tonight. I'm hoping to make a lot of progress on the WIP as quickly as possible because I have a few ficathon deadlines for July too. And while those are only required 1000 word stories...I'm a verbose sort of writer. My stories are usually not that short.

Have a great day, y'all!

Ciao.

If you like Doctor/Rose, time_and_chips is the best place for icons, fics, etc. I wouldn't go there until you're caught up, though, because it's gone insane for the finale right now, and I wouldn't want you to be spoiled.

Good luck with the writing!

Thanks for the link to the community - and yeah, don't want to be spoiled, so I shall wait until I'm caught up. Hee.

Go, Tommy! Go, Tommy!

And how about you, dude? How did you do yesterday?

455 words. I'm not verbose at all. However, I plan on writing some more tonight.

Awww, yeah! [dances] Now you have to finish and post it. Don't be a tease (that's what Steph calls you all the time, anyway... kidding)!

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

It will be finished. I do not want to break the WIP pact and be shamed (there are embarrassing things involved if you break the pact) so I shall finish it.

And hee - where do you think Steph learned her own teasing behavior?

I think it's safe to say that I'm hooked too. The friend I'm staying with for the week in Southamton is a huge fan so she been showing me eps.

dr...who?

So I don't know anything about icons or fic for Dr. Who, but I know the girl who's dating him in real life...does that count?

My absolute one and only hook up, and I never get a chance to whore it 'cause no one knows what the crap I'm talking about.

ooh...that is very cool! And yeah, people just look at me like I've developed some weird affectation when I mention I've been sucked into Dr. Who.
