EOM Writing Stats - June 2019

End of Month (EOM) Stats

Target Words/Day Average Words/Day Total Words/Month Target Words/Month EOM Difference
1,666 1,49044,691 50,000
5,309

So roughly 5k words off the target but that's still pretty damn respectable.

Fic I Finished in June
Quite a bit because I was working to get a blackout in [community profile] trope_bingo . A lot of this was stitching together scenes I'd been poking away at throughout the round.

Reunion - Because there is never enough Aligned Bluestreak-Prowl reunion fic.

Quadrivium - Timey-wimey weirdness.

A Companion, Unobtrusive - Prompts + googling = Blaster hearing literal ghost transmissions.

Five Times Jazz Watched Prowl's Family from Outside & The Time He Was Invited to Join It - I will never get enough of this little family. <3

Something on His Mind - Bluestreak 'faces Optimus Prime. That was the entire idea. Somehow it would up over 7k words because sometimes the characters surprise you.

Comforting Bluestreak - More Bluestreak/Optimus rarepair goodness.

Appetence - Believe it or not I didn't originally intend to feature Mirage so heavily. Seems to've worked out, though. :)

Bibliophilia -  I can't actually remember where the idea for this one came from but I like it.

The Door That Was Firmly Shut - Probably wouldn't have posted this one if I didn't need it for the bingo square. One day I will learn not to run right up against the wire with deadlines but June 29, 2019 was not that day.

Liminality - 2 in 3 commenters (as of July 1, 2019) find it creepy/terrifying! Even I'm not sure what actually happened, especially at the end there. Frankly, whatever interpretation you can think of is likely valid.

Limited Edition - Starscream and Orion Pax as competing book collectors who end up having a one-night stand. I don't know what it says about me that this is what I came up with for the 'Rivals to Lovers' prompt.

Earning Prowl - Stepping outside of my comfort zone and trying to write antagonistic attraction & authority kink. 

WIPs
Getting back to some things I put on the back burning during [community profile] trope_bingo . I did sign up for Round 13 but I'm not going for a blackout this time. Single line is fine.
  • Untitled [community profile] wipbigbang fic. I got the rough draft done, need to go back and flesh out a few scenes/plot points. The rough draft is due on the 6 and needs to be at least 80% complete and I've got that. Did not get claimed by an artist but that's ok because I was kind of anxious about that and my anxiety does not need more feeding right now, tyvm.
  • Assassin AU part 7. Because even though I would steer clear of Assassin!Prowl if he were real, as a fictional character he's fun to write. Difficult, because a lot of what he does is a potential red flag and it can be a fine line to walk, but fun.
  • Principatus 3. Probably just going to be getting Jazz set up in their new life as a corporeal entity, however permanent or impermanent that may turn out to be.
  • There are a couple more that were inspired by [community profile] trope_bingo  prompts but weren't going to get finished on time. I don't want to focus on those just yet, I want to clear out the older items from the WiP folder first.
