Chapter 3 <-> Chapter 5

deyuoh has drawn two illustrations for my Star Trek fic Ghosts in Attics. They are fantastic! I'm very impressed.

This one has Mirror!Scotty lurking on the USS Enterprise and watching his nice and harmless counterpart.

This one has Mirror!Spock being cold and evil and McCoy being a poor little bastard.

Since those who are not members of the site are unable to view the second picture, deyuoh has kindly posted both of them again on livejournal, here!



In other but related news, I have today reached the grand number of 50,301 words for NaNo!

1. Write down the names of 10 characters.

2. Write a fic of fifteen words or less for every prompt, using the characters determined by the numbers. Do NOT read the prompts before you do step 1.

Day 15. 32540 Words. Still failing at proofreading and posting.

Pic any of my icons and post it or a link to it in a reply to this entry. I will then write a drabble based on that icon.

I'm beginning to think this might actually word, all things aside. My word count after one week: 17349. Writing 2000 words a day once again works quite well.

The downside is that I managed to finish some chapters for various stories, but never find the time to re-read and post them.

Taken from sarkywoman.

Pick a paragraph (or any passage of reasonable size) from any fanfic I've written, and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first place, what's going on in the character's heads, why I chose certain words, what this moment means in the context of the rest of the fic, lots of awful puns, and anything else that you'd expect to find on a DVD commentary track.

So, it's November again. I wrote 2206 words today and am happy. Since this time I'm not going to write one big projectthat no one but me will ever, ever read (see also: Last Year) but instead work on several smaller things and on finishing stuff, my fanfic projects will not suffer from this. On the contrary.

Except there's this stupid final thesis to be written for university. It will take up a certain amount of my word count. Meh.
