We did it!!
I am and will forever be a slower writer than TL, but damn it, I sustain. And we did it -- we're 75% of the way through book 2, at 100,000 words, probably 25% of which was fluff meant to keep us going when energy was flagging.
I thoroughly recommend writing alongside a loved other, folks. Sneak in with some RP when both of you are going UGGGHHH I DON'T WANNA and it brings the energy back up. Or at least fills in wordcount on a slow day.
I'm pretty proud of having done this alongside full-time work, although holy shit my wallet and adrenals are feeling all the time in coffee shops this month.
