Something I wrote is finally out in the wild. Where I have no real control over it ever again. What have I done!? <br /><br />Eek! :)<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=juniper&ditemid=24069" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://juniper.dreamwidth.org/24069.html shock public published! short: popinjay's daughter ecstatic public 3 https://juniper.dreamwidth.org/23890.html Mon, 01 Nov 2010 02:08:15 GMT https://juniper.dreamwidth.org/23890.html The outline is over 6000 words long.

Getting any sort of progress on my writing right now is a major accomplishment. Therefore, successfully getting about 400 words written this evening on a short story I'm noodling around with? Makes me very happy. The trick will be to see if I can keep doing it.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=juniper&ditemid=19446" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://juniper.dreamwidth.org/19446.html short: zytomancy $payingjob public wordcount public 0
