Howdy! I'm Valen!
I started this side blog ages ago as an attempt to have a place to post what I had written, and despite being able to reread the posts talking about posting something, and knowing what I was referring to at the time, this mostly became a place I reblogged writing advice. but now that I've started writing more again and posting fanfiction, I'd like a tumblr to link that is writing specific.
Main goal of this blog is to track how much and where I'm writing, having multiple wips helps make sure I can always be in the mood to write something, even if that makes progress in any one wip slow going, and tracking word count helps me feel like I have more solid progress compared to if I'm just reading over what I wrote in a day. The number makes it feel more real I guess.
I have a word count goal of 200 words a day, or 1000 in a week.
the difference in daily vs weekly goal totals makes it to where my goals take into account that I can't write every day, and the daily word count goal is hopefully small enough that if I write at all that day I can hit it and be able to say I hit the goal.

ch 3/? posted, in progress, accidental summoning, no one knows what's going on, but they are figuring it out as the go (or trying to.)
Captured King
Inspired by this post by mokulule, will start pretty similarly and then diverge.
The Justice League have successfully captured Phantom after a relatively unknown branch of the United State's government, the GIW, had reached out to them for aid in stopping the ghost who was destroying their facilities. Now they need to figure out what to do with him, hand him over to the GIW despite their story not lining up, or take a different approach.

"Boop." Danny pokes her on the nose, sending her into a fit of giggles. "That was great Dani!" "Yeah?" "Yes! We should do this more often, training doesn't have to be a slog, it's fun with other people!" "Does that mean you'd be willing to teach me the ghostly wail? The shields are useful and all, but the wail is like, an instant win ability." Danny halts in the air, stuttering for a moment, "Dani that's, that's different."
You are yourself, and you have to live with that every day. (Maybe you don't have to do it alone.)

nothing currently in wip status but wanted to shout out the other main fandom I could write fanfic for, esp as "what I am interested in writing fanfic for" is not directly related to how insane about a piece of media I am.
