Well, there goes these sweatpants. I just dropped smushed blueberries on them.
I'm listening to a free writing program that I like. It is from Tim Clare. He talks about the lesson then gives you 10 minutes to do the exercise. I'm sticking with it. http://www.timclarepoet.co.uk/couchto80kwritingbootcamp/

Yes, I did just spill dog food all over the kitchen. Think of it as an early present. Or an Easter egg hunt.
Third thing, I was reading Mur Lafferty's book about writing and was much struck by something she pointed out. Our dreams, the stories we write in our heads and sometimes commit to paper, don't make good books. I think that is true. Why is that.
Also, realized the story I began is a backstory, not necessary for the real story.
I think my shopping is done. Now for the wrapping. I enjoy the finished product - it is sort of like exercise for me. I like it when I'm doing it and when it is done but it is a hard activity for me to start.
What a relief it is to open up Mastodon and not have to be mad.
I'm losing interest in my latest WoW toon. I'm up to 110, found Argus was working through it and suddenly... tired of her. I think what I enjoy most is starting a new toon and slowly raising it up.
And now, rather than write, I will kill monsters on WoW.
And then (if that's not enough) I'm taking Hunger Makes the Wolf by Alex Wells. I don't know a thing about the author or book but it was suggested to me at $1.99 and I thought I'd give it a try.
