8th July, 2008

So, it seems that I can’t actually take a day away from writing. Not at the moment, anyway, when I have so many different novels bubbling up inside of me.

I sat down with Shaede today with the intention of getting the first chapter overhauled. It’s the chapter that beta readers have had the most issues with, and I had a few problems myself with it. I managed to get halfway through it (2,552 words). I really wanted to get the rest of it done, but it just didn’t happen. I’m currently in flare and dealing with the aftermath of a nocturnal migraine, and my brain just didn’t want to work any more.

I’m not sure how much editing I’m going to do on Shaede. I guess I’ll just keep going and see how things go. Just working on it has made me enthused about the world it’s set in, and now the two sequels are clamouring for attention. Books, there’s only one of me, dammit. You’ll all have to wait your turn, or find a way to make my brain work for longer periods of time.

I don't get why random people add others on lj without commenting in their friends only post. :P

I've noticed you haven't been blogging much lately, do you think it's health stuff? Or a whole bunch of things?

Re-roofing the house = blerg. Hopefully you can get a good deal. Would you be looking at tiles or something like colorbond steel?

Also, how much did your curtains / blinds cost? You can message me if you don't want to write it here. Down the track I want to get curtains to frame our blinds and block some more of the heat out in Summer. My Aunt used to do curtaining, but she doesn't do it anymore.

I know how you feel- not for the same reasons- but I just can't concentrate on anything for any span of time, just too tired or fuzzy most of the time.

And yes H.A.A.R.P. tooootally made of awesome, I'm quietly waiting for the impending new album at the end of this year.
