[WIP Wednesday] Summer Plans + behold, my OTP edition
I know I've been fairly quiet with writing lately, and that's partly because I've been project hopping but also because I've been slowly but surely chugging away at writing The Fic for my baseball OTP.
For those not familiar, this is something I dreamt up over 15 years ago, threw down close to 8k of a hot mess of various scenes/passages in a draft, and never really went anywhere with, because it was far too overambitious for me at that time. But now, with life experience and writing experience under my belt, I stumbled into working on it again since I picked it up late December, and have added around 12k to it since then.
Anyway, my plan is to keep working on it over the next few months, with hopes to have it done by October in time for the 35th anniversary of the 1991 Postseason/World Series, which is when the fic is set. I gave myself the silly little goal of, from May through August, writing 4729 words towards it each month, a nod to The Ship. I feel that will put me at completion or, with all the editing I'm prone to do while writing, something close to it. (I have other writing +personal plans for April but I'm still shooting for 2947 :p)
Best Friends to Lovers (or whatever) is my favoritey-fave dynamic and it lets me indulge in scenes like this, of which there are many of in my fic: the dancing-around-what-we-want-to-say almost moments. So, yeah, check this out!
