1. What are your writing goals for the week? (projects to finish, word counts, etc?) I took my skip on slythindor100 this week so I don't have that to work on, but I want to work on the H/D fic that nenne is helping me with. I wrote a couple pages of something Albus/Scorpius in longhand so I want to type that up and see what happens there, and I found a thing on my computer that I wrote a long time ago, that was sort of supposed to be Harry/Ron but could be changed to Harry/Draco. I want to see about that. And I joined ass_ldws this round too but it's not even full yet, so I doubt we'll get prompts real soon.
2. What is your goal for the day? I'll be happy to get 500 words a day and I doubt it would happen most days. But I'll try!
3. Will you be working on a single project or multiple projects? Multiple. None have deadlines except the drabble contests.
4. Are you participating in any fests, exchanges or challenges? Nothing except the drabble contests. I'm resisting signing up for prompts at any of the fests so far at least.
5. Have you made any progress or had any pitfalls? Progress? Not really. I've been really busy at work and my dad is putting down new floors in basically our whole house, so home isn't ideal for creativity either right now.
6. Do you have any snippets to share? This is from the thing that is Harry/Ron right now:

Spells were flying in all directions, and as Harry ran toward Ron and Hermione, who stood nearly back-to-back, facing down two Death Eaters, his foot landed wrong. He felt something twist and tear in his ankle. The sickening pain brought him to his knees, but Ron and Hermione needed his help. He couldn't let them get hurt.

Harry saw a spell pass Ron by much too close for Harry's comfort. Ron Immobilized the Death Eater who had sent that curse, and Harry got to his feet again, groaning as his weakened ankle twisted again and something else tore. He started toward his friends as fast as he could, which in his present condition wasn't very fast.

Harry saw the spell hit Hermione just as she started to raise her wand to Stupefy her attacker. She dropped without a sound. Ron blasted the Death Eater with a full body-bind jinx, then Harry was running toward them, suddenly mindless of the pain in his ankle. He and Ron knelt beside Hermione's too-still body. She moaned when Ron slid his arms under her, preparing to lift her. Her eyelids fluttered but she didn't wake. Harry hadn't recognized the spell that hit her and he was afraid to try moving her in case moving her would make whatever damage had been done worse. He remained kneeling by her side for a few moments, but leaned over when her eyes opened.

And the Al/Scorp thingy:

Scorpius likes Al's house. It's much smaller than his, and not everything matches. There aren't any ancestral portraits always admonishing him to act in a manner befitting a Malfoy, but there are always lots of people there. It's loud and crowded, and Al's crazy uncle George is always making something explode. Al rolls his eyes at all of it sometimes, but's smiling when he does and Scorpius knows he really loves it.

Scorpius wasn't sure he'd be welcome here, but when he'd told Al he didn't really want to go to Sardinia with his parents over Christmas hols, Al had immediately owled his mum and dad and asked if Scorpius could stay. They'd said yes by return owl, but Scorpius' dad had insisted on Flooing Al's dad to make sure it was okay. Scorpius supposed it was a good idea -- he wouldn't have put it past Al to forge the note from Mr. Potter.
