Epic Romance: Progress

I have written over 6000 words in four days.

Cumulative graphs are fun.

I rewatched the Gwaine episodes to better characterise, and now my story has both pickled eggs and evil!monster!pheasants in it (indeed, in the same scene).

I got some eye candy icons to entertain me when I post/comment. (Sadly, because I no longer want to give money to LJ, the majority of them will be relegated to Dreamwidth.)*

I'm contemplating if I want to post teaser snippets as I'm working on it, as I did with We Happy Few, because I'm seriously having about as much fun with it (it's more sprawling, though, so the scenes are less compact and thus more tricky to snippetise).

Meanwhile, Merlin fandom is fab, and I am getting the most delightful feedback and omgyouguysLOVE <3

In summary, Epic Romance Status:

Current words: 6131
Current mood: N'AWW DORKS.


* Considering Eoin Macken, I have come to the conclusion that I definitely need an icon of Gwaine looking guileless that says "A model, idiot".

Merlin fandom is totally fab!

Icons are always the last thing I remember...

I'm looking forward to this, especially based on the snippet I read last night :D
