Writing fails of the day:
Discovering that the magic system that evolved over the course of my writing precludes having zombies survive burning. No flaming skeletons for me. :-( I really liked that scene. :-(

Almost having a main character casually do something that he needs to make a huge deal about doing at the climax. Now I have to come up with a reason for him to go someplace he's not supposed to go.

Writing wins:
I'm in a huge retreat center where I can legitimately avoid people, and I get to write in a big, comfy recliner in front of a fireplace surrounded by pretty art.*


*Well, maybe not the painting of a very Aryan young Jesus who looks like he's strangling a dove. But everything else is nice in a Catholic sort of way.

Maybe it's that apocryphal story where Jesus makes birds out of clay and then kills them.
