In Which Adulting Feels Like Missing Out...

And the FOMO is hitting so SO hard!

Basically, I really REALLY need to focus on getting some original fiction projects completed and out the door into the query trenches once again. And I've definitely noticed I can procrastinate like hell with fanfic, especially with exchanges. And y'all I LOVE EXCHANGES.

But publishing career. BUT PUBLISHING CAREER DAMN IT CAIT.

So yeah, this will be the first year in, hell I don't actually know how long that I'm not signing up for Yuletide, and I went ahead and defaulted on my FFFX assignment since it's early enough that it can pick up a pinch hitter with plenty of time to write them a good story.

I'm so bummed, y'all! 

But, this is what I want to do. What I need to do. I just have to remember to remind myself of that.

If I reach my wordcount goals over the next few months, maybe I'll reward myself with writing a pinch hit or treat or something. We'll see. But original fic MUST come first.

Oof.
