OMG, this fic (for bethefirst) is making me sweat so much, haha.

I really want to finish the first chapter (January) today and I am so close (like, I've written a poem for 27 out of 31 days now), but I can just feel my creative braincells wither and die now. I know I need to take a break and return later, but ugh. I really. Want. To be done. With January.

While I planned out January, though, I decided to give my project a new working title. Originally, inspired by a phrase in the poetry collection itself, I went with "The Year of the Horse", but now that I'm introducing a new red thread into the story, I've changed it to "The Year of the Wolf". Let's see if it sticks, but I like how it both references something out of the poems and differs from it at the same time.

On another note, I've now created fanficfeedback which is hopefully gonna be a community where fanfic writers can meet and give each other's writings feedback, without having to be part of each other's fandoms to do so. Look at fics with fresh eyes. Treat them the same way we would if they were original. I think it's an interesting concept and once I'm done setting up the community, I hope some of you guys would be interested in joining! My reach in the DW writing community isn't very wide, so I'll need help getting the word out eventually.

Originally, I was going to write a long rant about my mother, whom I talked to on the phone last night, but I'm just so tired of dedicating so much time to her, so I won't. I talked to her, it was triggering, now it's over.

Until next time.

So, I'll enjoy myself until then.

Thank you so much! Even days later, it's still a bit heavy on the heart. Parents can be like that, I suppose.

I have time next week to really sit down and work more on the community. Until then, please subscribe away! I'd be glad to see more people join in the fun.

Since this entry went up, I have actually managed to finish both January and February, will be moving on to March tomorrow which is very exciting. Thank you for all the encouragement!!
