Contest project, day seven: Back to square one. (S.O.S / Mayday) · 2:46am Feb 8th, 2015

Aaaaaandm I'm out of ideas. Apparently I'm not made to work under prompts.

Really, I've been reading everything on eyesight, sleep a couple of hours, watched TV, hit the random button on every wiki ever made. Hell! I even got to meditate till Poe's ghost came to me and smacked my head for doing that and not writing. Naturally, nothing of that helped.

Contest project, day seven (part one): We all make mistakes... · 7:36pm Feb 7th, 2015

...the important thing is to recognize them in time.

For example, when I started to write, I made the mistake of making my first fic (The Doom Patrol) waaaay too dark, with the second chapter being outright creepy. I noticed that and promptly went to a more sci-fi setting with more lighter and softer chapters.

Contest project, day five: Change! New direction on! · 1:29am Feb 6th, 2015

People, I would like to talk you about a change of direction I'm taking.

At first, I took the prompt "it's impossible" in a very classical way; creating an inescapable situation where the characters couldn't win, at all. It's an actually valid way to see the prompt and it's been perfected since the ancient Greece with pieces like the Odyssey.

Contest project, especial edition: Forget that crap from the last blogpost. · 6:25am Feb 5th, 2015

Alright, after cooling down and cutting my coffee intake, I gave a second look to the sketchbook chapter that is "Chapter 2: There's no hope against Unicron's forces."

I read it, out loud. I read it out loud and here's a decision I just made. It's not gonna happen.

Contest project, day four: My hot coffee, caffeine is AWESOME! · 3:29am Feb 5th, 2015

Okay, first of all, I want to bus the myth about drinking 300 coups of coffee and gaining super-speed. I passed that mark and still can't break the barrier of sound.

Why is the screen looking at me?

Anyways, what I was supposed to do with this?

Oh! Right, the daily progress.

WE HAVE A FIRST DRAFT!

Contest project, day two: Failure is the only option. · 12:06am Feb 3rd, 2015

Hi guys, how's it goin'?

Anyways, today has been a kinda slow day, still no chapters written and I'm having second thoughts about my initial idea.

Although Mazinkaiser could become a good fic on its own, it kinda share way too many common points with my other fic Ponies and Robot Wars, making it feel more like author tract than a fic by itself.

Contest project, day one: And here we go. · 6:40am Feb 2nd, 2015

Well, since this is my first prompted project that has also a deadline, I decided to track my daily work on it to be sure that no day is left withou investing something into it.

Also, it will be good for creative consult in case I have doubts or need an external view. Also it will help to avoid those Monday to Friday grammar errors.
