Paying the Bills

This entry is part 95 of 95 in the series Daily Scribble Reports

So yesterday, I wrote articles to put bread on the table (actually car payment), but I squeezed in a couple ficlets here and there.

I've actually been super pleased this month that for the first time ever, I've been keeping to my unspoken but much cherished goal of producing equal or greater amounts of original fiction than fanfiction as a sort of permission to write fanfic. Technically, if I throw in the articles and the poetry, I'm still way ahead, but no, I want it to be original fiction. So today I'm going to finish an original piece, something to balance things again.

Also crossposting. Because.
