One-shot progress

[lavivi]

You will be blessed by an almost minute-by-minute record of the writing.

• Six words in - not including author notes and lyrics - and I love it.  This is going to be brilliant.


• Finished first sentence!  And have gone back up to add disclaimer.


• Finished disclaimer, am now working on second and third sentences, which are each their own paragraph, though that is being debated heatedly.


• Aha.  The first writer's block.  Cannot find appropriate verb after "blood" that does not belong in a horror movie/story.  Spurts, coats, splatters, splashes, flies...


• Have left blank for verb.  Prologue (for indeed, that was a prologue) is done: on to main story.


• Went back to decide verb anyway, and fine, the story shall sound rather horror-story-ish.  So be it.


• Having serious doubts.  Story is bad idea.


• Will write it anyway, though am now debating title, if it should be "Won" or "Succeeded."


• Story sucks.


• But is growing anyway.


• Story is still growing to unexpected lengths. 


• Story has reached good stopping place.  I'll pretend, anyway.  I retire.
