This week was not as productive as I'd hoped (in general it feels like this year just refuses to start, but maybe soon) due to the cold I had already last weekend being hell of a tenacious one. It was not an ideal vacation when it comes to activity, but my stress levels are definitely down, which was the main goal to achieve.
I'm currently puzzling over the outline of my Cap RBB fic. I'm putting more effort on it than I normally do on outlines, because due to the deadlines of the bang and everything else going on I need to know it's not going to run long. I keep getting distracted by writing snippets which may or may not end up in the finished product. I'm laughing by myself at some of the interactions between the characters, and I'm also very much trying to break my own heart with some of the other parts of it, so good times:D
Anyway, I'm aiming at somewhere around 20k with the story, the length can handle the plot I have as long as I'm not getting distracted by tangents (hence the planning), and won't take all of my writing time over the next couple of months to finish it. As it is, it wouldn't be realistic to expect me to be contently working on just one story in the near future. For the first couple of months of this year I worked basically on just one fic, but I'm feeling more creative again, so maybe it'll translate into writing more as well, but it'll definitely mean I will want to work on more stories. For starters, I'm going to want to finish the fic I've been working on soonish while writing the RBB fic.
As of now, the draft of the pre-IW fic is at 34k. I finished chapters six and seven this week, and there's one left to write. It shouldn't be a terribly long one, so the draft will definitely be under 40k, but the finished version might go above.
In addition I continued adding notes to the regular Cap-bang fic as well as one another story that currently exists as an outline. As I said, it definitely feels like my head is kicking out more ideas than it has recently. Maybe it's just that we're finally starting to get some sun for a decent part of a day. I'm definitely solar powered in that I've got more energy when it's lighter.
