*Snort-laugh* Canon, what is this canon you speak of? XD
My favorite thing was to take my characters out of their canon, change everything and then keep them as much the same people as in canon despite everything being different.
Of course, current canon is something I won't touch with a ten-foot pole so I'm automatically off the beaten path when I write fanfic.
Writing hasn't gone as well as I wanted this week, sadly. I mean, I wrote. Pretty much every day. Just 1/4 to 1/2 of what I wanted. My goal for the month was 88K words and I'm probably going to end up around 70K instead. Still good, wonderful even, but not where I wanted to be. I'll try harder next month.
On the other hand I have two books nearly ready to publish (one tomorrow, the other next week), two short stories nearly ready to go out, and another three books in post production to be released over the next month or so so I'm not exactly unhappy with progress. I have room to wiggle and write more next month, even if I have to spend a lot of time rewriting the three books in post production.
It's always super nice to get ahead of my production schedule because it feels like I have room to breathe (and get sick or take a day off or whatever, you know).
Good luck on your writing, especially with the loss of free time!
