end, chapter one
I think.
I'm worried it's not hooky enough. Eh. I know better than to worry too much about that at this stage.
I took a couple right turns between one day to the next, which means I actually wrote half again what I needed. I used to keep these bits of unused writing, but after years of keeping an "odds and ends" file that never got accessed again, I know you need to just kill the words. It may have seemed clever in context, but there's more clever stuff coming, honest.
So anyway, chapter two starts tomorrow. In the meantime, my brain gets to decide where it's starting.

palm wine and dust
And more writing. Hey, maybe this laptop wasn't a vanity purchase after all.
Cannot for the life of me figure out how to network my computers. Suspect that XP and Vista do not want to cooperate. I wouldn't care so much, except my frickin' music is all over on Gertrude (the PC in the basement), while Violet (the laptop) has very few tunes to her name.
Time to wash up and make dinner. Yay!

white-fleshed peaches
I really love nectarines, and this is the best time of year for them. Yum.
I wrote today, and I wrote yesterday, in one of the three projects.
On non-writerly-related writing, I also am working on a new campaign setting for my D&D campaign.
I've never thought about publishing any of my campaigns...but I kind of am keeping that in mind for this one. Probably hubris on my part, but who knows? It could come in handy someday.

the out-castle
Anyway, more writing.
Night!

the village idiot
I caved into my inner geek and bought a laptop. The economic stimulus and story sale for the Valdemar anthology both helped in this decision.
I've been writing, I just haven't been blogging.
All is well.
Sleep now.
