Do daily posts even work in my brain anymore? Don't expect daily posts to be daily, I suppose. A lot of my writing goes in Gentle Decline and Commonplace and Ebb & Flow, so stuff here will be more... random, I suspect. I should just get on with it, nobody's interested in using a medium to talk about itself for more than ten seconds.
Today disappeared into writing, for the most part, on an issue of GD wherein I sat down to do one thing, and my brain hared off in a different direction completely. But it's probably a better one. That was about 3 hours, and 1800 words. The word tracker thing I use is a little behind right now, but it tells me I can muster something over 30,000 words a month most months, that I write at a steady rate of between 650 and 700 words an hour, and from looking at the numbers there, I write best or at least most when I have a defined project or topic in mind, and don't do well on the write-because-it's-Thursday approach.
I also watched the last two episodes of Season 5 of Agents of SHIELD, and the first of the one and only season of Inhumans. Agents of SHIELD has its failings, but I'm very fond of it. Inhumans... did not get off to a good start.![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
avenueyew had already watched it and warned me it wasn't up to the usual Marvel standard, and I suppose they have to have some duds other than Iron Fist. Also, I know there's a limited pool of actors available for SF roles, but having Anson Mount and Iwan Rheon onscreen, last seen in Discovery and Game of Thrones respectively was disconcertingly weird. I'm going to watch it for completeness anyway, but I hope it gets a bit better.
Weather is cool, grey, and windy, and not unpleasant, from my point of view, as such.

Also bumped into Iwan Rheon yesterday - in this case, playing D&D with other GoT cast members on Twitch. I have to watch a lot more of that, because it was hilarious - Gemma Whelan (Yara Greyjoy) stealing the show.
