NOVEMBER WRITING CHALLENGE
This is a NaNoWriMo replacement challenge. I've seen a lot of them floating around but none of them are calling to me so I decided to DIY something for myself. I'm a slow writer so I'm only aiming to write 10k to finish Gravity's Prisoner.
ABOUT THE STORY
Summary: Hal Jordan's city is destroyed and Wayne Enterprises steps in to aid the rebuilding efforts. Hal wishes his relationship with Bruce was just as simple.
WEEKLY UPDATES
WEEK 1: Not as many new words as I'd like but I did post a chapter so that's good. I'm not sure if I'll be able to update the fic again this month, I'd rather just focus on getting the words out. I'm also scratching my head over how to count edited words.
WEEK 2: I had to take a bit of a break but I'm finally done with the (terrible) first draft version of a section that was giving me grief.
WEEK 3: Chugging along! I doubt I'll be able to hit 10k by the end of the month but I think I'll be able to finish a sparse first draft version of the entire fic. I only have two scenes left to write.
WEEK 4: I didn't hit the goal but I finished the first draft and I finally have a complete story to edit. Not sure when the next chapter will be up but I want to update once or twice in December. I hoped to finish the fic before the end of the year but I may post the last bits in January.

Summary: Noteable attractions: this dude.

People who follow my personal blog have seen the pencil sketch a while back but Hal’s current uniform reminded me of these sleeveless shirts with too big armholes and this is the result.

This year's goal is finishing The Fool Would Be King. I haven't touched the fic in a while because I was caught up in a plot snarl but I recently realized I just needed to cut a superfluous subplot to fix that entire mess. I only need to write about 5000 more words and edit some things to finish the story so hopefully I can cross it off my list by the end of the year.

ETA - WEEK #1: I'm on track so hopefully I'll be able to upload the next chapter of The Fool this month. I'll likely cut what was supposed to be chapter 9 in half because it's getting too long. No idea about the rest but December definitely has a lot of editing in store for me.

ETA - WEEK #2: Still on track! Writing, rewriting, and editing the next chapter is eating up a lot of words so I may end up using the majority of those 5000 words just on chapter 9.

ETA - WEEK #3: I pulled ahead this week, which is good, but the chapter just keeps getting longer and longer, which isn't ideal. I'm still planning to update the fic this month but I couldn't work on the other chapters as much as I wanted. Maybe I'll do another NaNo challenge in December?

ETA - WEEK #4: I hit my goal on the 24th, uploaded chapter 9, and I'm officially closing off the challenge with 6068 words. As usual, I have underestimated how many words I'd need because I didn't calculate in all the rewriting that goes into finishing a story. Oh, well, you live and learn. I'll continue working on The Fool in December but I'll probably finish it next year.
