#2022 monthly recap

LIVE

queerfictionwriter:

Sometimes I wonder why I bother making plans, since things so seldom go the way I hope they will, even when I’m working hard to make them. March, in this case, featured a lot of health nonsense, and a number of demands on my time—and, as a result, I wasn’t able to write as often as I wanted to. Despite that, I’m proud of the fact that I managed to mostly stay on-track with my biggest goal during March, and make the days I wasable to write really count. 

Total wordcount: 9, 046 

Highlights: 

  • I did, in fact, go back to the novel rewrite the way I’d planned to, writing about 4.3k of it, which was about half of the total words I wrote in March 
  • I finished the short piece I’d started at the end of February—a Steter birthday piece for asarcasticwitch, which can be found here 
  • I worked a little on the Hanahaki AU 

Plans for April: 

  • Finish either the Hanahaki AU, or chapter 7 of the Kinky Stargent fic
  • Post something in April 
  • Bang out at least 5k of the novel rewrite

April was, simultaneously, nothing like what I expected and more than I’d hoped for at the same time. It was a weird mix. I met some of the goals I mentioned having in the March round-up post, but not all of them. Overall, I feel pretty good about what I’ve managed, even if it’s not quite what I’d planned. 

Total wordcount: 16, 513

Highlights: 

  • Highest monthly wordcount of 2022 so far 
  • Added 1.6k to the novel rewrite; while far below the goal I’d set, it’s still progress
  • Successfully finished—and posted—the Hanahaki fic for Shey (which can be found here)
  • Dipped my toes into a new fandom, and banged out and posted a short Jaskier/Eskel piece as a birthday gift (here)  
  • Started planning—and writing posts for—my own Patreon page, which will be focussed on offering writing help (will post more on that as things get ready/closer to launch)
  • Started another birthday piece for another friend 
  • Worked a little on the Stalion Neckz ‘n Throats fic I started a few months ago 

Plans for May: 

  • Get back on track with the novel rewrite; 5k is the goal 
  • Finish the starting set of Patreon posts, and set up the page itself 
  • Finish and post the two birthday pieces I have planned for the month
