firethesound2026 GOALS
2026 Total Wordcount Goal : 79,078 / 150,000
2026 Total Writing Days : 81 / 365
MARCH
Oh my god this fucking month. I expected that the second half of it would be busier, but I was unprepared for just how much busier it would be, and how draining and stressful. I am absolutely flattened right now. Emotionally, physically, mentally. I am so so so tired.
March Wrap-Up : I finished the month with 38,153 words which is incredible and also frustrating. Even though I knew that the last half of the month would have a big drop in wordcount, it was rougher than I expected. Losing momentum sucks, but still! 38k is awesome and I'm trying really hard to focus on that. A total of 5 WIPs got words, with all words going into 5 Old Guard fics. Not only did I meet my goal of 25k, I went well past.
APRIL
April--crossing my fingers and knocking on wood--should be a fairly quiet month. I'm pretty burned out from Life Stuff, but hopefully I should be settling back into my regular writing schedule and I guess we'll see what happens.
April Wordcount Goal : 30k and I'm bumping it up to where I've landed the past two months, and hoping that I'm not about to jinx myself by aiming higher.
April Fics to Focus On
☆ food truck au : and where last we left, I was optimistic that I was bumping the wordcount estimate for the very last time. And to that I say LOL. LMAO, even. Holy shit. If the chapters had stayed consistent, that would have been accurate. But then I got into the relationship part of the fic, and Chapter 8 ran way long, so I split it in half. And then Chapter 9 ran long again. And then Chapter 10 ran long, and now Chapter 11 is, you guessed it, running long as well. And taking into account how long these chapters are running I think I actually have about 50k to go on it. At least 50k. Oh my god what the fuck. Estimated wordcount, 165k.
☆ pwp : I haven't decided which of these will be finished but I need to finish something. I made Grace pick one for me but I'm struggling to get that one to come together so idk.
☆ redamancy part 4 : and this one I think I can get done, it only needs like another 500 words and it'll be done. I just want to get something finished and posted.
