oh for fuck’s sake. i just pasted the kes/shara thing I started writing 3 days ago into a proper Scrivener document for organization/formatting/final polishing because it was composed in a google doc full of other fragments, and for the first time i see a wordcount. i had previously counted it at like 3500 words, and i knew it was at least twice that.
…
it’s 18k words long you guys.
what the fuck.
so much for a single chapter oneshot.
what the fuck.
I’m going to go re-count and make sure I didn’t paste in any deleted scenes or whatever (protip for highly prolific writers: never really delete anything, it costs almost nothing to keep it and it’s sometimes amusing later), but I think that’s real.
Fuck. Nope, it’s really that long. 17,903 words.
I guess I haven’t been as useless lately as I thought?
Doesn’t change the fact I still gotta fix chapter 7 by Wednesday!
