Open Thread: Oracle Hotline

[mithen]

The house is clean, my hands don't hurt (a silver lining to having to clean and not having my typing time), and despite that I still wrote 800 words in 30 minutes last night, which is a blistering pace for me! I'm usually satisfied with 1000 words in an hour... Sadly, another story I was working on got painfully jossed by canon yesterday, so I'm left looking at a bunch of prose I'm very proud of and figuring out if I can somehow trim away the stuff that doesn't work anymore and adapt it... I think I can but it will now end kind of sadly instead of happily, and I'm not thrilled with that either. It's not really something I can just blithely ignore, either, so that's not an option. That's a good question for this week: What's the worst canon has ever interfered with your writing, and how did you deal with it? I hope you're all doing well!
