On the benefits of procrastination

[dbskyler]

I've been plugging away at my Yuletide fic, and I had a moment of "Oh no, is my recipient going to like this? Am I using the requested characters enough? Am I using them in the right way?"

And then I thought, "No time to change it! Forward!"

So, I don't know if what I'm writing is any good, but at least I'm waffling about it less?

Also, I've passed the 1,000 word mark!

hooray!!! keep going :D i'm sure it's great.

also - since you mentioned it: i've been plagued (the years i did yuletide) with not very much info, so i had much the same. one year it worked great - one year... i have no idea whether they liked it or not.

I don't know about great, but I'm sure it will exist, which is a big improvement over last week! ; )

*cheers you on*

That is the advantage of being up against the deadline - you just have to steel yourself and go with what you've got...

Yes, exactly.

Thanks for the cheering!

Well done on passing 1000 words! And you can only do your best, you never really know exactly what your recipient will like.
