ad_exiaThe Ties That Bind is up to 67,000 words (at least, according to fanfiction.net, though their counts tend to be a smidgeon on the high side compared to Word). But still. The Age of Heroes was already 70,000 words; ajfaudfai this fic is going to be, like, 80,000 words, isn't it. ::fail:: WHYYYYY. I think I'm going to aim to have it done in 20 chapters or less; I just posted 14 and I do have the end mapped out (thanks to some half-asleep brainstorming last night in bed, ahahaha). Unfortunately, it means I'm going to do that thing where I torture my main character like there's no tomorrow. But come on, that's fun, right? >>; Percy can take it. Really.
Except tonight I have some other stuff to write: there are a few contests ending tonight and I want to get entries out (there's at least one I cannot allow myself to pass up, since it's free and I have the thing half-written), and then the stupid![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pjo_kinkmeme which already ate at least an hour of my life is going to eat another, as I think I composed almost a whole prompt response last night before I fell asleep and I really need to write that out as well. afjdauifuia, my life, there it goes. I NEED MORE THAN 24 HOURS IN A DAY, SRSLY. I'M SUPPOSED TO BE WRITING A THESIS, HERE.
Speaking of, I want to finish up that page for the IAU conference proceedings today, but one page is totally not enough to fit, like, anything. Argh. At least the GTC meeting let me use two columns! But nowhere in the IAU info does it say I can do that, so I suppose I have to assume I can't. :x Grar. Oh, LaTeX, how I remember disliking you. I'm writing my thesis in Word. :P
Okay, back to eating lunch so I can get these proceedings done (should it really be plural? I mean, I'm only writing one "proceeding"... uh). And then I need to, you know, DO RESEARCH. So I can show something to my thesis committee in, oh, two weeks. fjaeufhau help
