The State of the Ficcery: May 2022
May. 31st, 2022 09:47 pmWord Count for May: 44,972
I finally got a strong month. Happy with this. I am too tired to do much of a summary.
Writing: I ended up doing 7 fics total for Dick or Treat. I started to write for MMoM but didn't see much activity there, so gave up in the first week. Lots of short pieces & drabbles.
Next up: 1. Into a bar. I have to get my Bertie voice on and snag a Aberdeen terrier-centric plot that Stiffy Bing can consult Sherlock Holmes on.
2. Unconventional Courtship.
3. Last installment of my Tarot prompt.
4. Finish up Yahtzee prompts.
Reading: My main goal is to finish The Hero with a Thousand Faces by Joseph Campbell. I've got plenty to read after that. I am on Death on the Nile and am listening to Kenneth Branagh's version, and he does a good job.
Personal: The boys' father is in Cameroon for 3 weeks. A lot going on. The apartment pool opened, and I've already taken the boys once. We usually spend a lot of time there. The boys have the last 2 weeks of soccer, end of year activities at school, and invitations to birthday parties. The usual routine.
I downloaded an app to help me with my intermittent fasting and so far so good. Too bad I can't eat it :) I am also back on the studying Korean. I have a 12 day streak with Duolingo. I am back exercising too. I managed 9 days of cardio and 11 days of strength training.
