Selfship fanfic.

Since humans exist in the ii universe…

Astro clutched the hem of their dress, having such an opportunity to meet someone they admired was bonechilling. Horrendous. Horrible. Oh how it wished to go back in time and just admire from afar. Yet here he was, sitting across the one woman he feared.

Wide eyed as she nervously folded yet another file. Scanning through the ones she hasn't been through. Anything- just- ANYTHING to start a conversion with this ugly excuse of a creature.

This human confused her beyond anything. None of her knowledge worked on it. No file could save her in this situation. As expected. She learned long ago.

“So, uh- what's your…name?”

Their face instantly reddened. Holy shit, Cabby- THE Cabby was talking to him.

WHAT DO WE THINK OF THE WIP 🗣🗣🗣🗣🤤🥺😍😍😍😍😍😍

CalmWrimo update - The end

wooo! i made it to the end and i actually accomplished my writing goal.

i wrote everyday for at least 30 minutes, most days only 30 minutes, but i'm very proud of myself, i really feel like i've unclogged my writing pipes and my words flowed a little better here towards the end. it's also been very nice to see other people participate and post their own updates. i won't lie i kind of wanted to read one of you's storys cause it was mad interesting, anyhoo i got a story down, all the way that i had planned all written out nicely and i ended up on 30 or so pages and about 17.000 words, how about that!

in this month i've really gotten to work through my story Wip 2 and gotten to know tha main character, Daa, as well as adding several other character si hadn't planned on, i also did a kind of alot of world building, but i still think there are holes in my world that i'll need to fill, i made an end, added a few extra scenes that made everything a little more interesting, like one where she gets kidnapped and meets someone entirely new, im already thinking about the next 30 pages, where i'll come to explain why she was kidnapped Hint i already foreshadowed this on the first page but thats some details i'll have to figure out and do the actual writing.

im going to chill for most of december, but we'll see how long i can stay away for, now that the balls had a steady roll.

goodbye i hope you everyone who participated had as good a time as me and thanks to the creator @winterandwords , for this much more doable challenge for November

Okay uh, little update, for myself mostly and to motivation to continue on.

I dont know if the story in writing is godnat end up being long enough for a novel and im slowly coming to terms with and being okay with it being a novelle, and also promptly reminding myself of how much I adore short immersive books that have no continuations. If I like it so much then how come i feel its not worthy enough....mmmmmehhh this is more thinking that I was thinking i was going to think for this motivation post for myself.

Its also an announcement post, to say im back, to those who care *gestures at the dust bunnies (also on another note, "dust bunny is an absolutely adorable name for little collection of dust).

Ive sort of maybe realized I don’t have an end, and thats currently my biggest problem, besides the whole writing the bread of it all out, but tahts miiiiinooor thinnnngss. *cough cough.

So anyway, hello, again to myself probably but if you had fun reading this, you could, maybe, choose to make it known...somehow~

[big-maggots-writes]

So it's official (semi I've been in it a month ain't easy to quit then) I could only stay away 8 days, a lie, before I started working on the story again. As I was trying to fall asleep I was etching out some backstory for a surprising (or maybe not) character and today i wrote the words down in my world building planning page to really make it stick, now all I have to do is finish their current reality (flesh it out cuz it just says crime which isn't a whole lot descriptive, the book gon be 60 pages at this point T_T)

CalmWrimo update - Day 23

Already day 23, these times fly by me.

i've still been able to keep my 30 min active work on my WIp going, and although i've been failing spectacularily on my self care goals, i have been wroking out and here the other day i cleaned my room.

so the actual update, i finished reading through my small little first draft, and found some issues which i now have to resolve, although i was mostly finished reading it yesterday i still had like 5 lines to do today, so anyway i also got to work on some of the problems today.

Now i'm struggling with a scene that's supposed to be a horrible experience for our MC (sprinkle in a little trauma), but it's not really traumatic, and i need to hurt her somehow, maybe take an arm or a leg, it's just i don't really know what to do to her which works in this scene that would also hurt her, maybe something on her back and a trip to a less than ideal pop up hospital, ohh and maybe she meets someone there tham im planning to have her meet here towards the end im working on...yeahh that...okay so, guess it was helpful to write it out here, hope you like my lil thought train.

anyhoo i guess i've now got my work cut out for me ish...

Hope you all have fun writing and lots of motivation and inspiration!

CalmWrimo update - Day 15

whew, im back home what a flight, i missed a day so i had to make up for that today by writing for an hour, but since ive sort of reached the end of what i had already planned it turned into a lot of world building a few minor corrections and fill ins i'd previously left empty.

so now begins filling in blanks and writing the end and how we get to the end (the real hard part) so i know i have to write a few scenes i really didn't want to write tomorrow and ugh....im just so tired these days but hey i actually got the 1 hour done today im kind of proud of myself here, but anyhoo, in a short minute i'll start to hate myself for not doing correct grammar and writing like a literal 3 year old.

anyway i for the first time during this challenge wrote on my computer and that came with a huge surprise that is the fact i thought what i had written on my phone was maybe 5 pages, like at most, and then i open docs on my computer and its 24 pages. i didn't have time to comprehend i just had to dive in, but damm i've written a lot.

Maybe i'll rewrite the intro tomorrow, maybe i won't ehhheeheh.

okay, wishing you all a happy calmwrimo, great amounts of motivation and an insane joy in the artform of writing

CalmWrimo update - day 12

And so far we're staying afloat and making it, but 30 minutes is a complete adequate amount for me to write a day when I'm on vacation and sometimes don't have a lot of time to write, but I really feel like I've made some headway on my WIP 2. It's going very well, I've added trauma to the character and hinting at things which are really horrible:) but eehhh, I'm starting to get to the point where I haven't planned further and am going to have to check how many qords I've actually written on this and decide whether to end it or have to come up with a feq more things to happen before I completely shut it down, and well it's only a draft 1.

When I get back home and finish as far as I've planned I'm going to have to start filling in the blanks I left and doing round 1 of spell checking and inconsistencies which will just be peachy;)

Anyway, hope you're all very motivated and get some writing done, all the best to you all!

CalmWrimo - update day 6

Sooo, I've had a rough time with this already and it's only half an hour, which doesn't seem much, but I knew I would have a rough time because I'm on vacation and doing stuff and have only come home late so, sometimes I've been so tired and I've still managed to get my writing done. These days I've been really grateful to myself for only setting a time limit and not a word count, although I haven't been able to reach my Reading as well, but I've been less rough on myself and just wrote what I could.

Happy writing, Good luck and much motivation to you all!
