Update for September 14th

UPDATE If you've seen my tumblr updates, then you know that I killed my laptop, for good this time. So until I get a new one, I'm borrowing my grandmother's, which means that ALL updates may slow down to a crawl. MAY. I don't know, and I don't want to get your hopes up, so if I do  end up updating, I will announce it on Twitter, so watch that. I probably won't be getting a new laptop anytime soon. I don't have a job, as you all know if you've been keeping up with these, so no steady income to buy one, or even make a deal with my parents/grandparents to pay them back after being bought one. I am hoping to get a job, so there's that. However, if you'd like to help at all, please check out my  Ko-fi . Any donations there would be helpful. I'm also taking short prompts there (300 words or so), so check that out. See you all soon, Kate-Lee 🌝

Writing Update for September 7th

Real Life Classes have started again, and so far they're interesting even if there is a tonne of reading to do... I'm doing some of my final courses this year, so we'll see whether I graduate this summer of next fall, I guess. The only issue I've run into so far is that I haven't gotten one of my textbooks yet, which is a pain, but otherwise, the only regret I have is that my first class is at 8:30 am. Writing Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa  (6/7) Word Count: 3130 BINGO Works Complete: 0 BINGO WC:  0 Since I'm participating in Round 1 of HP Rarepair BINGO, I figure I'd add that as an update until the end of November (I will still be participating in NaNo this year, I think..., so don't worry) when Round 1 closes. The collection only opened yesterday, and I've been busy with classes which is why I haven't really started yet, but I'm going be starting soon.  Upcoming Honestly, I have no idea. Classes have fr

Real Life Update Nothing really happened this week? I mean, I didn't really go anywhere, and I didn't really do anything, so... I'm having issues with the alarm app I'm using on my phone. The actual alarm part doesn't go off for some reason, which is annoying... Writing Update Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa Word Count: 3001 This week was a meh week for writing. I've just fallen into a hole with some things that I haven't dug myself out of yet, so I've made a deal with myself: at least 10 minutes of writing, then you can put it away, so if that means that I only write a paragraph, well, I only write a paragraph. Upcoming I have no idea... Classes start this week, so... Other Notes You know what's annoying? Comments asking about when I'm updating, and that's it. I mean it's great that you like it and you want more, but if I haven't updated it for a bit, well, either I've run out of ideas, or I'm giv

Writing Update for August 24th

Real Life Update Nothing really happened this week. I stayed home was pretty much it. Video games and writing were about it for what I did this week. Writing Update Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa  (6/7) Word Count: 3737 Writing went alright this week. Not really anything to phone home about. Upcoming  I may put out the next chapter of True Blood  this week, I may not. It all depends on how I feel about it on Thursday. Other Notes Nothing to report.

Writing Update for August 17th

Real Life Update This week was meh. On Friday we went to the States, so... That was interesting, to see the differences between here and there; the things they have we don't, and the things we have they don't. That was all that really happened this week that was interesting... Writing Update Days filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa (5/7) Word Count: 2679 Thanks to having gone on a day trip to the states, I didn't do any writing on Friday. I've given myself a freebie for the new works I started. Neither is anything I've written before, so... One: it's a reincarnation Merlin -crossover of HP, with Harry/Neville/Harem. Two: is a Lost Boys (1987) fic with Half-Vampire Emersons, so...I've got lots of plans. Upcoming Nothing is going to come out this week either, unfortunately. I'm still getting chapters finished and getting the schedule table filled out, so... Other Notes I signed up for the HPRarepairs BINGO, so we'll see how that

Writing Update for August 10th

Real Life Update I didn't really do anything this week honestly. I was home alone for the most part as the grandparents went to visit the Gr'Aunts so... I rejoined the Drarry Discord server, and so I've been having some very nice conversations with like-minded and helpful people. Can I just say that ants suck? I get them in my room every summer, but with it being as gross as it is here, I wasn't expecting them this year. However, it seems like as soon as it flicked over to August they were everywhere in my room. I've put out poison and am constantly wiping my desk down with tea tree oil, which helps a bit in keeping them out of my space, but they are  so  annoying. Writing Update Days Filled:  Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa (6/7) Word Count: 3586 Yesterday was a meh day. I got majorly distracted by fic recs from the server that sent me spiralling into my bookmarks for other things and then I had an idea for a Lost Boys— the 80s movie with Kiefer Sutherl

Writing Update for August 3rd

Real Life Update Sorry, this didn't come out yesterday, darlings. We went to see the cousins for Big Cousin's birthday. I spent most of the day in the pool, got an uncomfortable sunburn along my back though it's mostly my forehead and the back of my arms that are the issue. I also spent a lot of time playing with the Baby Cousins, and can I just say that it's an exhausting experience to wrangle a two-year-old and a nine-year-old in the pool. Went and saw Hobbs and Shaw today, it was really good! I haven't seen any of the other Fast and the Furious series, but that knowledge isn't really necessary for this film, so knock yourselves out if you like explosions and Idris Elba. Writing Update Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fri / Sa (6/7) Word Count: 4149 This week was an even spread; I got at least 200 words for most things, and I did do at least 25 minutes for everything, even when I really didn't want to. Upcoming Not really sure what in all

Writing Update for the week of July 27th

Real Life Update Nothing really happened this week either. I've been sleeping too much, which is definitely an issue that will have to be sorted out before classes start again, otherwise I'm up the creek. I've been avoiding the news as much as possible. It's just too depressing to watch while politics loses its collective ever-loving mind, and America turns into the domain of a reincarnation of Hitler. Writing Update Days filled: Su /  Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa  (6/7) Word Count:  3697 Writing is still a bit of downer. I keep getting distracted is one of my main issues, but the Block has picked up again a bit. Upcoming Honestly, I'm not entirely sure what's going to be coming out this week... We'll have to see.

Writing Update for the Week of July 20th

Real Life Update Not a lot really happened this week. We painted most of the garage in between rainy days, so that's pretty much done. Otherwise, nothing really happened this week. Writing Update Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa (6/7) Word Count: 4518 Writing was okay this week. It was a bit of a hardship for some things, but I did get a fair bit out, as proven by the word count for this week. Camp NaNo Update I'm behind again, but I'm not too fussed. Part of it is I got wrapped up in playing games instead of writing, and part of it is I keep changing the timing for this one part, so... Upcoming Chapter 3 of Archangel's Heir  will be put up this week. It's the Wizengamot chapter, so stay tuned for that.

Writing Update for the Week of July 13th

Real Life Update Not much happened this week honestly. My sunburn is a bit better. It's not totally healed because where I wasn't tanned before the sunburn is still significantly redder than everywhere else and it's still peeling, but it's definitely better than it was at the time of last week's update. The peeling is annoying, 'cause it gets everywhere and it's where clothing rubs so it's constantly coming off, but at least it's not so itchy now. Other than that... nothing really happened... Writing Update Days filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa (6/7)*** Word Count: 3896 I actually sat down and did the full 25 minutes of pretty much everything this week, I'm so proud of myself! There were some that drove me crazy, but I did end up getting at least 250 words (my project goal per session) for almost everything, so woo! I started the New York Home  upgrading this week. Already there are almost a thousand words and I've only g

Writing Update for the Week of July 6th

Real Life Update This week was a bit hectic. We went to the big city on Thursday, to see my Uncle and help with his squirrel issue. Saturday, so yesterday, we went to the lake. It was great, except that I'm burnt like a tomato on my shoulders which makes lifting my arms an issue. Writing Update Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr /  Sa (4/7)  meh. Word Count: 1637 I got some stuff done, but not really anything noteworthy, sorry darlings. Camp NaNo Update I'm doing CN on top of my regularly scheduled writing. My word count goal is only 10,000, so it's not a lot. I'm writing it both on paper and then transcribing it into the word doc, so it's a bit more work than normal, but because we've been busy, I wanted to be able to take it with me in a better way than using my phone. So far, I've got 1460  words, so it's not too bad. I am a bit behind from days where I either didn't really get any writing done, or I didn't get enough  

Writing Update for the Week of June 29

Real Life Nothing really happened this week either... I got my thesis books back, so those were handed in, but otherwise, nothing really happened... Writing Days Filled:  Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa (6/7) Word Count: 4329! (That's more than I've gotten in a while honestly...) Writing has been going at about the same pace? Honestly, somethings go faster and some slower, so... I'm thinking of redoing what I've got of New York Home. I've been rereading the previous parts and I've noticed a lot of plotholes that just don't fit with what I've got planned. So I think I'll redo it a bit. Upcoming This week, a chapter of True Blood should be out, so stay tuned for that!

Writing Update for June 22

Real Life With it being summer, I didn't really do anything this week...  Tuesday we went golfing, which while fun was a giant pain. My tendonitis/carpal tunnel did not like it. At all. To the point where I couldn't really do anything for like three days after. Writing Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa  (6/7) Word Count: 2391 Because of the pain from golfing, I did little bits of writing this week, but nothing interesting to report, so, bye? Upcoming  Honestly, I have no idea... We'll have to see. 

Writing Update for the Week of June 15

Real Life Nothing really happened this week that I didn't put in last week... Yesterday was the wedding social for one of my cousins who is getting married in July? I think. Another cousin is getting married in August, so... Oh! I had an interview this week. No callback yet, so we'll see! Writing Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa (5/7) Word Count: 3056 Friday was a massive-headache day, so nothing happened. It came on partly because I don't really have a schedule for feeding my body without school to keep me focused, and partially due to a small barbeque fire that had chemical-laced smoke which played havoc with my head. I made up for it yesterday, which was a time and a half of work as I plotted things out. I figure I might as well give out story specific updates more often, so I'm going to start giving them out from now on. By Gray Light  (Monday): The current chapter I am working on is the aftermath of the Audit. It's being written in

Writing Update for the Week of June 8

Real Life Update Not really much to comment on for this week.  Still job searching... It's a pain in the butt.  I passed my driving test! Woo to having a full license now! Other than my grandparents going away for my Gr'Aunts' birthdays, and getting into a small fender-bender on their way home today, nothing else really happened this week.  Writing Update Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa (6/7) Word Count:  3577 The Time After Time  series is still giving me trouble. Seven  just feels like too much retelling at the moment, even though only Draco and Harry know what actually happened. With Ten , I've actually been working on a later chapter because it was a large part of the reason that I started it. Fourteen keeps getting chapters added to it in between the chapters I have already, so it's a bit of a mess.  I've fallen into a Rhodey/Sam mindset for No Matter The Time , so I've been working on their chapters. The one

Writing Update for the Week of June 1

Real Life Update So I know there hasn't been an update in almost three months, but between finishing this year's courses and just not writing in general, I didn't necessarily have anything to update here. I've kinda decided that I'm just going to put out an update anyway? Even if it's only this part and an I-didn't-get-anything-done for the rest. So since the last update, here's what's been going on: I finished off all my courses for this year! I passed my defence, so that's my Creative writing minor pretty much finished.  I saw Endgame, and while it was good, I have to say I am so mad at some of the decisions, so if a bunch of Endgame Fix-it fics come out, you know why. I may put up a separate Endgame rant, so if that's your cup of tea, watch for that. My sister graduated from high school... surprising honestly as she pretty much hates school, which is probably why she's joining the Air Force (or at least attempting to). She'

Weekly Update for March 9

Real Life Update Hoboy, the past few weeks have been crazy, hence there not being an update for the past two weeks. I'll put the writing bit in the next part so you can see it, but otherwise... Last week was crazy. I spent the whole week working on my thesis project, so there was no work done on anything else which was part of the reason there was no update. I got it done, thank the gods, but it was close. Went and saw Captain Marvel  yesterday. I won't spoil it, but ohmygod. SOOOOO GOOD!!! Goose and Carol and just... everything. *sighs* So so so so so good. It also gave me major anxiety for Endgame, so... On the opposite side of the spectrum, Friday I got a bit of horrible news. My best friend's dad has been sick for a while, and he went in for a transplant on Friday. He had a heart attack on the table. This will be the second time since I moved out for college that I've not been there for my best friends when they needed me. Not a great feeling. Writing Updat

Writing Update for the Week of February 16

Real Life Update This week was alright. We got super busy yesterday, hence this being on Monday rather than Sunday. We went to my Aunt's for dinner, so it was like three hours of crazy kids. I always feel exhausted when we're done... Spring Break is this week, so yeah! Writing Update Word Count: 1625 Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fri / Sa (5/7) I get way too distracted... That's all I have to say... I'm thinking of taking short commissions on Ko-Fi. 3 dollars gets you 300 words. Just leave a short prompt in your message.  Plans for Next Week Chapter 8 of By Gray Light  will be out this week. And a Seed in the Orchard, so keep an eye out for that. // Feel free to leave a one-time donation on my  Ko-Fi  page. See you next week for sure! ~Kate-Lee

Update for the Week of February 9

Real Life Update My cough went away! For now anyways. It does come back occasionally as I go outside, but that's to be expected with how freaking cold it is here.  It's been a meh week. My Aunt came over during the week but otherwise, I didn't really do anything and nothing really happened so... Eh~  Writing Update Word Count: 2556 Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa (6/7) -close but not quite I got a few ideas down, but still, no real chapters finished, unfortunately. What I really need to do is stop opening Bunny Adoptions and Drops on AO3, because I keep getting ideas and the compulsion to write the damned things. I'm not going to at the moment, thanks to my thesis and other stuff, so ha. Take that brain. It's not happening.  I'm thinking of taking short commissions on Ko-Fi. 3 dollars gets you 300 words. Just leave a short prompt in your message.  Plans for Next Week No real plans for any chapters to come out, but I may

Update for the Week of February 2

Real Life Update This week was alright I guess. I've had a cough for about two months now that just won't go away. It leaves and then comes back, and this last iteration of it has been extremely annoying. I'm thinking it has something to do with how cold and dry it's been here lately rather than something else. I started doing what I'm sure is a 1000 piece puzzle... that has no follow-along image. It came from one of those multi-puzzle boxes, but when I moved for college I didn't take the box, just the two unopened bags. So it's been extremely slow going thanks to that, and the stupid cat who--until I covered it with a pillowcase (which fits almost exactly over it)--pulled the damned thing apart and threw the pieces all over the room. Writing Update Word Count: 2662 Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa (5/7) I spent Sunday and Wednesday working on both my thesis and a project that's due tomorrow, so technically I got some more writing d

Real Life Update This week was a bit hectic. It was a joint birthday dinner today, so everyone was over. I wasn't really feeling well this week, so there were some days I didn't really do anything. Headaches suck man. I've decided to change the days for these to Sundays instead of Saturdays. Not only does it allow me to get everything for the week finished but it also means that I did actually get the whole week in there. Writing Update Word Count: 2067 Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa (5/7) **Meh I spent most of this week playing catch-up after not getting anything done--other than some stuff for my thesis. I didn't really do a lot, just a few minutes a day, but still I got some things done, so...

Writer Update for Jan 19

Real Life Update Nothing much happened here this week. It's colder than all hells, so I've been mostly staying inside knitting and reading. I have to have Plato's Symposium read by Monday afternoon, that'll be something for tomorrow for sure, but I may start today. Writing Update Word Count: 2961 Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa -sorta (7/7) *Meh Week I wrote for at least 25 minutes a day this week, but I didn't get a lot done, as proven by the fact that I only got about 3000 words done. I'm not too fussed though because I have a bunch of stuff to do anyway.

Update for the Week of Jan 12

Real Life Update: I had my first undergrad thesis meeting this week for my Creative Writing minor. At least 40 pages double spaced, a maximum of at least 100, though I can go over if necessary. First drafts due on the 1st of March. It's all a little nervewracking. We'll have to see how I do, I guess. Otherwise, I've got a bit of everything going on. Classes are okay, only a few annoying people, but otherwise fine. We're going to see Mary Poppins  tomorrow, so that should be interesting. I forgot to mention that we saw Aquaman  last week, that was really good. Orm was an interesting character, and Mera was a bit of a bint but not overly so and for understandable reasons. It was really good and the visuals were amazing. I am not kidding! Writer Update: Word Count for the Week: 4905 Days Filled: Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa (7/7) *Good Week I've got a few new things planned--a soulmate au for The Magnificent Seven  being only one of them.

Update for the week of Jan 5

I figured that I would start doing a weekly update here, not only to fill up my blog but to give you all some idea what's been going on both in real life and in my writing. So here we go: Real Life Update: Friday was my first day back at university. I started Medieval Drama, which is mostly biblical plays. History of Literary criticism is something I'm not that interested in, but it's necessary for my degree so there I am. I got my class books, and holy shit, it was like 40 lbs.  We had a late Christmas today, as relatives came up for a visit. It was good, there was a Secret Santa game. Using a dice we passed the gifts around. I got this huge necklace that makes me feel like a rapper from the 1990s. Kinda weird. Writing Update: Word Count for the Week:  3800 Days filled:  Su / Mo / Tu / We / Th / Fr / Sa (5/7) I got some things done this week. I got at least 25 minutes done for each of the fics that I'm focusing on, so I was quite pleased. I did move so
