You know I said I was going to do daily writing status posts again.

And I haven’t.

I also haven’t been writing very much.

Is there a causal link? I don’t know. The lack of writing means I’m not making the post, but if I knew I had to make the post would I then write? This feels like a “if a tree falls in the forest and nobody hears it, does it still make a sound?” type question.

Anyway I am still working on Choosing Fate. It’s a hot mess right now. I know I said that about Our Darkest Hour but this is way worse. I’m a bit annoyed with it to be honest because writing fanfic is supposed to be my ‘easy’ project and this is being frustratingly difficult. I’ve had soooooo many days where I’ve only written a sentence or two (as I’m trying to avoid zero days). The only reason I wrote a chunk today is because it’s challenge day on WriYe and I make special effort for those.

So today in Choosing Fate Helen and James strolled along the seafront, trying to get to know one another better. I wasted a fair bit of time researching Victorian seafront holidays haha. It’s 1875, I keep catching myself going “wait, did they have that back then” and having to go check.

Tomorrow probably more of the same but maybe we’ll skip along a day or three. They are there two weeks after all and it would get boring if I tried to show too much of that. They need to get back to London – Helen needs to meet John.
