12,555 words. Hump Day. OORAH.

Ha! 12,555 words which means I'm now at seven finished chapters and that I've written a little over the half of the required word count for [livejournal.com profile] het_bigbang. I honestly didn't even think I'd get this far so phew, maybe this is actually doable. If I stop pushing my word count for other stories and start actually churning out words and words and words for the Big Bang. But, me being me, I just discovered another issue that I keep having with the story. I start to get the ugly feeling that Evan Lorne is way, way, way OOC in this one and I'm starting to panic again and can please someone have a look at it? Not beta it, just look it over, see if he strikes them as OOC and if they can find what's actually causing that anxiety over him being OOC. Someone? Please?Anyone? PLEASE?

*runs around in panicked circles like a headless chicken

I'm sure the story is great. You have made great progress. It's going to be fine. :)

I'm not so sure about that... he's constantly surprising me with being more like Cadman (that is, talking first, thinking later) and less like his usual self (that is, keep his mouth shut when it's best for him). I am a little worried :S

If you want I could give you a hand. I'm back in France so I have the internet back !
That and I feel guilty after reading your posts because it's kinda my fault.

Actually, an extra pair of eyes aside from [livejournal.com profile] mackenziesmomma's wouldn't be too bad. Could you message me your e-mail address? (I just bet you did that before but... in a bout of mailbox cleaning frenzy I deleted all of the almost 700 messages I had in my inbobx...)

I could have said no and never signed up. Ultimately, it was my decision, not your fault ;)

I'll PM you my e-mail again then (I still had your wallpaper as my iPod home screen but it died just before my flight D:)

Actually it'll be a good experience for me to do this because I'm feeling very close to writing something [i]for real[/i].
So yay.
