Clarion Write-a-thon update

ysobelDaily and very boring updates can be found at http://writingforclarion.wordpress.com/, but I figured weekly-or-so updates here would be good.
We're one week in to the write-a-thon, and I have written almost 5500 words of original fiction. Not from the same story -- about half the days so far (by which, yes, I do mean 3.5) have been on the 'primary' project, which I am calling Totally Not Torchwood until it tells me what its title is. (A lot of this is, ironically enough, stuff that I know won't be in the finished product, because it's sort of the pebble that starts an avalanche but the story is really in the avalanche and not the pebble, but whatever.) The rest has been miscellaneous other things.
(My brain is kind of at war between "750 words a day is nothing, you are pathetically out of shape writingwise" and "750 words a day is kind of impressive given your recent origfic writing drought". and "the writer you would like to be? could churn out 2k words of AWESOME in the blink of an eye. you are not there.")
Anyway! Onwards. Five more weeks to go \o/
(Those who have donated, thank you so much <3. Those who wish to, go here. Those who are also doing the write-a-thon, or the sister one for Clarion West, /salute.)
