Moderately productive

[wiseheart]

... because the cleaning, with which I wasted the whole morning (up to 3pm) clearly doesn't count. That's slave labour.

But I did work a bit on pot holder #3; stitched together the sides temporarily, before I'd do the actual sewing. And I've typed up the rest of Chapter 16 to "The Book of Mazarbul" and posted the finished chapter to AO3 and SoA. I also typed up the beginning of Chapter 17 - not quite two pages yet, but small progress is progress, too.

Fortunately, we've cooked for several days in advance yesterday, so no kitchen duty was required. And now I'm tired; ready to read some fanfic, watch some telly and play some Solitaire.

It’s great to have a day that achieves something and then you have a rest and relaxation. Good luck with the reception of your Tolkien story. May no nitpickers comment!

So far zero comments, which is still better than nitpickers and flamers. *fingers crossed*

I noticed that ao3 had a glitch yesterday with anonymous comments, so only signed in readers could comment. I think there are fewer comments generally. I notice in the fandoms I read in that many readers may have viewed a work, but few will comment. I try to comment if I’ve liked something, but I’m always a little embarrassed with the quality of my comments. They seem to consist of “great chapter” or even worse, “well done”. My brain fog reigns over all coherence.

Thank goodness you don't have to cook. Your kind of cleaning frenzy would lay me up for a week.

I don't do this voluntarily, you know. But I'm not the one who calls the shots in this family.

Such cleaning frenzies would be the death of me!

I don't enjoy them, either. But this is Mum's idea of proper house caring, and she's the boss here.
