Incredible. But terrifying.You’ve written over 2000 words with no ‘it’. No ‘ing’. Oh God, no ‘ing’.You’re a force to be reckoned with.No ‘it’, no ‘is’, no ‘-ing’, no ‘in’, no ‘I’. I’m on 2,700 words now, and I’m… not sure how I’ve managed to do this. Dialogue is proving the biggest challenge, unsurprisingly. Why did I do this to myself? So this is going to be like 15-20k when it’s done… umIf I finish this, I will probably count it amongst my greatest achievements.Op you’re the most powerful person on writeblr right nowThat’s good to hear because I’ve lost all semblance of control with respect to every other facet of my life, butI’m maybe a third of the way through now?? So that’s good???? And now I’m going to have a very relaxing bath??????I probably have about another 14,000 words to go and honestly, when I hit 10k (the expected halfway point), I’m going to treat myself to writing 100 words of something else that has the dang letter ‘i’ in itNearly wept when I realised I couldn’t use the word ‘frantic’ earlier, but 7.5k is my next milestone, and it actually might happen tomorrow, which is unnerving. How should I celebrate?? Getting really bad impostor syndrome today and feeling 95% sure that I will never amount to a thing and will probably never finish this story, and so in response to that dumb brain thought I did thisSuck it, subconscious.You are a force of nature and I am both impressed and terrified.Please publish this somewhere when you a e done so we can read it holy shitI absolutely will!! In other news I hit 10k today and that’s without a thesaurus and oh golly, my poor think-boxThis author is a sleeping God among mortalsThe Earth fears their awakening into their full powers Full powers yet to be confirmed, but after a short hiatus, I have returnedWhen I get to 12k, I might do a very elaborate jig I really hope the title of your story is “Team.”Alas, as good a pun as that is, it would not really suit a story about Eurydice escaping her failing marriage to Orpheus by fleeing to the Underworld and becoming a powerful undead entity, but the name of it will be a sort of pun.
