I've decided to do a mini-writing month, and have joined the community mini-wrimo on LJ. You can set your own daily goal, minimum 100 words, and I signed up and chose the minimum (it's possible to to this even after the start of november).
I'm planning to do the majority of the writing I will do on my Thorsten/Sebastian fake relationship AU, and hope I've sorted out my trouble with how to do it. As the standard trope of "they have never even considered it" is a bit stupid for a couple who flirted like anything in their earlier episodes at least, including one having his partner put the ring back on his finger after an assignment (his other arm was hurt) all the while quipping "Til death do us part!".
So, last year I did sign up for 100 words each day, and managed to do it. 100 words doesn't sound like much, and it really isn't. But the thing is - for me, I commit to really writing them every day in November. No excuses. No "I'll count the extra from the day before", and no "I'll just do it tomorrow as an extra". It's not "3000 words in November". It's "at least 100 words each and every day in November". Last year, that got me to 11636 words written in November.
