An entire day of working on it on and off and the end of Break Point is in sight. I'm at 4,798 words now and I think I have about another 1,000 or so to go... but at least half of them are smut and I hate smut-writing at 4am. So I might try and finish everything but the smut, then do the smut when I get up and post it then, because I've worked too long on this now to screw it up at 4am on the smut, of all things. I'm just glad it finally found a direction and my muses surprised me once or twice by actually working for it.
I am going to be so glad to be done with this fic. -_- It's driving me as mad as Bounty did, and that was twice as long. Ggggrrrr.

EDIT: And being in the house all by myself is starting to get a little freaky, even though the coolness of being able to have a bath without worrying that anyone else needs the bathroom, or to leave dirty plates until morning, cannot be denied. It's just this is my *first* night, and I've got another... six nights after this. I may crack. Or start letting the cat sleep on my bed to keep my company which was totally forbidden by the 'rents and which I am gleefully going to ignore.

And is this only just turning into an obsession for you? It's always been one for me... Although, I'm not as much a writer than a reader.

Date: 2005-05-15 02:48 am (UTC)Thank you. ^__^ Sleep is good.
*grins* This particular fic is. I've had it opened and being worked on for about the last... forty eight hours or something I think. And for weeks before that I kept opening it, writing a bit, getting stuck and having to leave it for a while. For some reason nothing was going right until a few hours ago. *sighs* Muses.
I was forced into being a writer for this last summer when I could find no tennis slash whatsoever to read and had to write my own. ^__^ But if we didn't have people to read the stuff we write, there'd be no point so readers are very important. *pets some more*

Date: 2005-05-15 02:59 am (UTC)I love being by myself, so I thought it'd be no problem... but I've never been in the house on my own for more than a night before. The prospect of an entire week is starting to seem a little more of a big deal than I thought. *sighs* I'll be fine, I just might double check the doors are locked before I go to sleep. ^__^
*goes off to let the cat in to sleep on the bed* There's nothing a fluffy pet can't solve. ^__^

Date: 2005-05-15 03:10 am (UTC)*pokes back* Yep. I actually have two fics bouncing around that I'm trying to work out how best to do, so you may get something a little different if they decide to work. I love this fandom and that if you do something different, it's probably the only time it's been done in the fandom so far. It's so cool. ^____^ But yes, lots ofc fic in various stages of planning. *giggles and snuggles back lots*

Fic has reached a nice stopping point, so I'll go grab some sleep. Night! *huggles* ^__^
