Writing Groove

[alchemistdoctor]

I've been unproductive most of break, and then this week hit and suddenly I was able to write again? It's bizarre. I've had two yet-to-be-posted Venom fics, another chapter of Posh Boy, a chapter of my unposted pirate AU, and a submission for the Spark newsletter.

I've not been this productive in ages, so I'm gonna try to ride the wave and work on some email replies and thesis writing, as well as some more fic chapters, before I'm once again stuck in classrooms.

I love this album! In the spirit of honesty, I haven't seen the movie because I want to read the book first, and I haven't read the book because University got in the way. But the music is *chef hand* muah.

The books are superb. I've never cared more about characters I would have found offensive if not reprehensible irl. And they are a geekfest of nauticalia, especially with plays on words strung out over volumes. They're my favorite Sherlock Holmes AU of all times.

But the movie, while of course deeply extracted from the books, is also marvelous in its own ways. The fact that there is, continuously, the background sound of the hull creaking and the sea moving, and the sense of an isolated, self-contained community—it is just perfectly done, so realistic.

And music suits it perfectly. And you already know how good the music is.

I'm excited to read them; maybe that's how I'll spend summer break. My to-read list is so long...
