EIGHT DAYS LEFT, EVERYONE.

I am more or less certain that I'll finish on time, but I am nervous about whether it'll be polished to the standard I want. Dear self, you KNOW what happens to the wordcount when you decide that what a story needs is 'plot'.

How about you, fellow yuletiders?

That post's comments made me grumpy. I've posted stories that needed a LOT of work on deadline day two years in a row, and always had the finished product ready for the reveal. (In one case I actually wrote an entire new story on Christmas Eve.) These experiences weren't ideal and I don't recommend it for shits and giggles, but I did what I needed to do and I think my stories were better for it. *shrug*
