book meme, and bookkeeping
Jun. 24th, 2009 04:52 pmBook meme! I actually did this the other day but hadn't gotten around to posting it yet. Seen a bunch of places.
( meme here! )
In things totally unrelated, last night I started trying to bring some order to the chaos that is the fic-writing portion of my hard drive. It's less that the folders aren't organized – I have a system, although I suspect it wouldn't look like a system to anyone but me, and I usually follow it, except when I'm in a hurry to save something – and more that I have so many unfinished fics and bits of fic that when I'm feeling uninspired, I just bounce around from one unfinished project to the next and basically make no progress.
Anyway, now I have a spreadsheet! With word counts and notes and file links and copious self-snarking and blaming of other people, hehe. It already has an intimidating amount of entries, and I'm not actually done adding stuff yet, but it is much easier now to navigate the jungle. *feels accomplished*
(Also I am not starting anything new until I finish some of these, or at least consign a few of them to the folder of death. I am not.)
