So last night I was jotting down notes and ideas for
hardmode, using Write or Die to motivate myself to write.
Long story short, I managed to write a 6000+ word rough draft for the FFIV idea I mentioned before. In one night.
So far, the first draft is all from the PoV of the character who ends up being put in solitary confinement for most of the fic. If I want to get to ten thousand I'll have to include more points of view. Tomorrow night, I'll probably do the same for another PoV and see how I do. And then we'll just have to see if I can edit it into something resembling a coherent story. :D
