amelia_petkovaI got up at 7 AM today to write fan fiction. Holy Yuletide deadlines, Batman! I have other projects to work on as well, but I'm mostly rushing to meet the Yuletide deadline. For the first time, I have two fics in progress for my recipient and I want to see if I can pull it off. My mother's reaction, when she got up a half-hour later and saw me showered, dressed, and sitting at my laptop:
Mom: How long have you been up?
Me: Since 7.
Mom: ...is everything all right?
[I have no clue what she was wondering. Maybe that I hadn't slept well, who knows.]
Me: Yes, I just have a lot of stuff to get done this weekend and I can never get to it during the work week.
Mom: ...okay.
In my mother's defense, she had just woken up and hadn't had a cup of tea yet.
At this point I've finished the first draft of my first story and the first draft of the second story is at least a quarter finished. If everything goes according to plan, I'll get the first story done by the end of the weekend. It all depends on how many errands, Christmas shopping, and other to-do items come up. Still...
I'm almost done with a Yuletide fic! Yay!!!
