Holy crap. 5421 words, and I've only just woken him up, taken the drip out and gotten him to eat and talk normally! He's learning a new language because the TARDIS is too far away to help him translate, and he's had some frostbite that's healing.
There's NO WAY ON EARTH i can wrap this up in 8k words, so i'm utterly ignoring the word limit, and writing what *I* want to write. I'm going to write the entire 5 years, yes. I've decided it. Yes.
And then i can take snippets of it or whatever and assemble the 8k words for Craig's book. But i NEED to write these 5 years. I need to do it, so badly, its rattling round in my brain and its driving me round the bend. I want to read those 5 years, so i want to write them, to satisfy myself.
I've done 4k words today alone, and it wasn't a rush job, it was just a case of sitting down and putting down ideas on paper, that's all!
Plus i think i've gotten a bit wordy in places, like verbal diarrhoea. Its going to need a spit and polish, that's for sure. But it'll be MINE. :D

Sometimes i dont know where it comes from, i just write what i see floating round in my head. I dont have a plan, other than the big events, i dont know how i'm going to do it, i just sit down and DO IT, and it just comes out.
Sometimes it doesnt come out - this is the most i've written in several months, owing to holidays, Rachel starting nursery, and the ebola virus, heh.

I plan the heck out of things when I'm writing. I can't write if I have no plan.

I mean, i make some plans for the beginning and end of something when i start it, sometimes i think of plot twists, or new ways of tying things up while i'm in hte process of writing it down, etc. Usually before i go to bed is when i do my best thinking, or in the shower (because that's the only time i get to myself, mainly) and something will hit me.
But by time i sit in front of the keyboard, it *just spills out of my fingers* like that. Its weird.
OMG Nano - i did 64k in 3 and a half weeks, and it was insane. I usually did 3500 - 4k a day. I can hardly believe I finished it. I still cant find a beta for it though :/

And I don't know about Hershy's Kisses - I don't think I've ever had them!

I had the one of him grinning after having his arm up the cow's arse for a long time as my default icon.
As for the kisses, you'll just have to find out if you like them :) I see an Alocin-parcel in the post, possibly this week, possibly nearer the 17th due to financial constraints...

Keep an eye on your post on or after the 17th. Yes.
