superhero_musesOh no, I failed to post this last week after writing it and everything! I guess I'll post it now (I've gotten no further writing done, so it still works...)
------------
I've been in Sweden! I did not get much work done on the next fic I'm trying to write, but I did get the scene set (I've never started a fic with "It was a dark and stormy night," but it fit the canon really well so I went with it!) The first scene is in the middle of a storm in a small house near the beach, so it's been nice to pull back memories of beach houses from my childhood. Hopefully next week I can kick the plot into action!
How about you, what's the setting of the scene you're in the middle of writing right now? And how is the writing going in general?

Date: 2024-09-06 06:31 am (UTC)I'm writing a scene in a mental hospital and keeping it low-key. It's an upscale hospital so the environment is different from a state-run institution, but the health issues are the same.
Ooooh, that sounds like an interesting challenge! I remember you writing Shutter Island fic but it sounds very different than that!
130.000 words is a lot! I hope it continues to go smoothly!
