Keep going ����
Oh, I literally never stop! Seriously: when I have a slice of free time, what I do is THIS. The last time I wrote a fic that had more than 10 chapters, I was posting it as I wrote it and I could barely live with the stress. That was Against the Rest of the World, which is 152K long (about) and took me four full months to write, with me posting a chapter about every 6 days. I finished it RIGHT before series 3 dropped, with a sigh of relief and also despair that the new canon was going to immediately make it irrelevent (though happily, people do still read it!). It took every scrap of my spare time, and I was only working part-time then. I decided after that one that I wouldn’t post WIPs again. Which is to say that: while I may not post all of a story at one time, I never post any of it before the entire thing is done now. Basically all this is to say that, now that I’m working both a full-time job (museum) and a part-time job (voice teacher), with some freelancing on top of that (I’m a classical singer and nutritional coach and occasional article writer), I’ve nonetheless been working on this story continuously since I posted my last one, Isosceles. So it IS going, I promise you!!
Also this isn’t a rant, at all. :) I love and thank you for your encouragement!
Also #2: I just surpassed 2.2 million words of Sherlock fic! :)

Finished editing (at least the big, overall rough edit) what I have on the fic so far, and so far it’s been divided into 11 chapters, with three overarching parts! (I hate that it’s not symmetrical, but one of those chapters is almost twice the length of the others!). Now to write the rest!! There’s a definite light at the end of the tunnel here! :)

Yup. And that usage comes from the Latin, membra, which means limb

Hayley Atwell
Listen I try to be a decent adult grown human, and be respectful to women because they deserve it as fellow humans, but sometimes I reblog a tumblr post because another decent adult grown person just looks like That, and I am reduced to the equivalent of a weird little Goblin, crouching under a broken bit of cement by the highway overpass, clutching a single piece of paper with the word “boobs” written in awkward handwriting and capital letters on a squelchy bit of gray receipt paper, waving that paper at people as they walk past, desperately hoping someone else sees the miracle that I see.
Dying at the above comment!

Made (and interrupted) these gifs to ask: Just how late did Sherlock change his mind here?
Let’s articulate it. Look at his mouth when he pronounced the “sh” in Sherlock:
But here’s its shape right before he spoke, at the end of his inhale:
Why
open it so wide? He stood there with his mouth shut for long enough:
so
it’s not just about nervous breathing. To answer the question, let’s
examine Sherlock’s mouth starting to form some words that do require this shape:
So whatever he was about to say, it likely began with “I”. Now what could that possibly be? Hmmm…
nO SHUT UP SHUT UP

Oh, good, we’re back to Tarmac Hell™ this week. Fantastic. :|
Ah it’s finally back on my dash. If I have to suffer so do you!
Sharing, because misery loves company and all
Aaaaand sharing again, because past!me just made me suffer this all over again so I thought I’d pay it forward. Again.
I sit like this sometimes
