Tired, tired, tired, but got some words down. Turns out that spite can be an excellent motivation.

New words this week : 3268 words which brings my April wordcount to a total of 8107 / 10,000 and kicks off my May goal with 1009 / 10,000.

WIPs worked on this week : 3, with 1 new WIP

HP
Fandom Trumps Hate : 940 words which brings the total to 27,771 words and slowly but surely I'm chipping away it.

Stay aka Don't Think Twice #5 : 2054 words which brings the total to 6249 words. Every word of that 2k+ was written out of sheer spite for a crappy message I got regarding this series and how long it's taken for me to get it finished. I kind of hate to admit it, because I don't want to give people who leave crappy comments any sort of validation in what they're doing. Basically it got me just angry enough that it overrode the writer's block I've had going on, which, if any of a dozen reasons for the writer's block or current RL circumstances had been different, would have otherwise just ended with me being upset and making even less words than before. Don't be the reason for someone else's bad day, friends.

MCU
IW fix it (working title) : 274 words on a new WIP, because I saw Infinity War on Sunday and I have many feelings about it. I have a loose idea of a thing I'd like to get done before IW2 comes out next year, but it's waaaay down the writing queue so I don't really expect it to happen. Still, I had to get the idea jotted down and we'll see if it goes anywhere.

So many words! That's awesome! Shitty that you got a nasty comment, but I'm glad it inspired words instead of going the other route.

so many words =) I am glad that you overcame your writer's block and continue the don't think twice series because i'm a big fan. Nevertheless i think it is just rude to leave comments like "why don't you continue" or just crappy comments in general. I am happy for every word you write, because i love your stories. In my opinion the writer is the one who sets the tempo for a story, not the reader. Pressure never helps. So i just want you to know, that there are people out here who are just happy for every word you write and don't give a damn about the time you take. You are a wonderful writer, don't let some people who just don't think be the reason for a bad day of yours!

Terrible people are terrible. Sorry that someone got shirty with you. You don't owe anyone a finished series and anyone who has ever written fic and put it out in the world knows that. Much love and support from this corner.
