Today has been a wild one.
I have been writing almost non-stop since 10 am. Few breaks, mostly for self-care like eating, getting some fresh air and napping, but as soon as I've had the focus, I've sat in front of my laptop, writing.
16 poems was the end goal. Well, I've written 16 poems - including the very last poem of them all, the one that puts a final nail in this Omina project's coffin. It isn't dead, but it is done. Well, for now. Tomorrow begins the editing process, re-reading, rewriting, those things that are also a part of it. I'm thinking that might take me most of next week - and after that, the betaing process, followed by more editing, and then, then, this baby will hit AO3.
I honestly can't wait till I can share this wild creature with you all. You have all been so supportive and shown such living interest that has warmed my heart and motivated me a lot.
The process today - and the past three months, really - has been gruelling, but wonderful. I felt I listened to both my mind and my body while writing, never pushing myself too much and giving myself room to sway and change focus when needed. Very proud about that, since it's one of the things I struggle with.
I'm really tired now, but mostly physically, my mind is completely running on overdrive. I'm drinking a non-alcoholic Heineken beer and just looking out at the slowly fading day outside my office's window. K. isn't home and part of me is really sad that she isn't home to share this with me right here and right now (though, I know logically she'll be home later and share it with me there), but on the other hand I'm really enjoying having this moment to myself. To bask in.
I finished something.
I finished something major.
It's the first time ever something similar has happened.
I almost don't know what to do with myself. Kind of waiting for the drop, haha.
Until it gets here, if it does, I'll just exist in this little vacuum and pretend the world starts and ends with this most obscure of fanfictions, because for a rather long time it has, for me, personally.
And to share with you the sound of my feelings right now:

I like the song. It's very ... gentle? Idk. It feels very you to me, which is maybe a weird thing to say because I guess I don't know you very well yet, not having known you for long or anything, but still: it feels very you. :) Lovely stuff.

The song is very gentle and I definitely identify with that a lot, so I think you're right! The whole album is amazing, though, especially the song "Bortom det blå", it's my favourite. If you ever feel like it, look it up. It's gorgeous.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm currently reading through the whole thing and making some light edits and accumulating some notes to send your way along with the document when I'm done. I think I'll be done on the other side of the weekend, so expect something to come your way next week sometime!
Again, thank you so much for being willing to read this over for me. I know it'll be so much better when you've worked your magic.
