Wow. No NCIS and only one TW story. Weird.

2 drabbles, 3 ficlets, 1 full length story 2424 total words

That's a pretty low word count, but I've also written 9k or so of my bigbang, so I'm pretty happy.  Not sure if the bigbang will be 20k but oh well.

also:

Icons!

Women of NCIS (for half_a_moon), Tony (for chatona), more Tony (for tejas), and Ace (just because she's awesome)

Wow, but you're almost halfway through 20,000! That's great! I expect word counts of published fic will be lower while folks work on Big Bang.

The Superman one and SuperGrover really stick in my mind from this month. ::glows for you::

I never count WIPs word count until it's done, it may not get finished, I might have to erase half of it, etc.

:) thanks!

Oh, sure, it wouldn't do to list it with the published stuff, but even if those particular words don't end up being used, as a measure of the work you've been doing, it's meaningful, I think. :)

I just spent a few hours re-writing a long scene. It's a little - erg - with regard to word-count progress, but feels good too because I think it's going to make it a better story. /randomish

If only we could count words we erased and rewrote, right?

But yay for you for rewriting and fighting the good fight to make it better!

That's quite a range of fandoms.

*Sends keep going BB vibes*

Thank you!

It was my first month without an NCIS fic since January of last year!! *boggles* I must do something about that!

That's a long time.

And yes, you must!
