It's hard work, isn't it? Makes you appreciate literature more. Authors are only supposed to make it look effortless.

But I'd have it no other way - it's great mental exercise. You can do it! 12 days should still be plenty of time (if anyone new wants to join...hint hint) as long as you don't get too bogged down with the details. Just write, that's the purpose of it. And have fun.

I've been procrastinating on starting a general "inspiration" thread, but now that it's past mid-October and we're in the thick of everything I think it might be especially important, so I'll hop to it.

As for my own story, I've been sort of slacking. I just finished my midterms, like that's an excuse, pssh.

How is your story coming along, Capella?
