Ok, 2000 words from this morning's rather brief session, and more to come this evening after I go forth into sunlight and do Social Things Involving People.  For me, the getting things started is the most time consuming part.  Once I've herded some electrons, it's easier to sit down and continue.  Having a lot of fun with it, particularly making the narrator's tone and language fit just right.

I was picturing you bouncing off walls...LOL...but glad you have decided against it.

To have time to write 2,000 words a day would be great for me, but lately, RL just won't leave me alone.  I have so many edits to do and a couple of projects in the works, but they're gathering dust.  If I don't get to them soon, I fear the dust bunnies will carry them away!  Argh...

Haha...if you can use dust bunnies in your long term project, I will be impressed.   ;)

Whenever you're ready, just send it back for me to re-read.

You have your work cut out for you, don't you?  No rest for the weary, they say.

oh not as hard as what i am curently trying to get in to my storywitch is wh i have to do so much damed reasurch
stupid fire dancing
some one bet me i could not do a good seen with it in i foolishly said i could
i know ecactly how i am going to do it
and he agrees it would be cool if my idea works
[roblem is i have another chapter to go till i can do that seen
stupid plot line getting in the way
and as i  put down the book for exams i have to remind my slef what was going to happen in that chapter
dust bunnies would be a sinch all i would do is make them an actuale creature and then have them apare and poserbly steal something
then work that in to the plot some how

LOL on the dust bunnies come to life!  Of course, that would be awesome.  *thumbs up*

I'm supposed to be doing research on angels for my set of short stories I want to do.  Angels have always been interesting to me (hence, my name Zuriel, who is the angel of September and Libra - my birth month and sign - and balance and harmony).  And I don't want to use the same angels everyone does, the most well known.  I have an angel dictionary that lists so many more.  Just have to find the right ones for the right story.  Someday...  :-\

Hmm...fire dancing sounds intriguing!  Nothing like someone giving you a challenge to set you in motion!  I can tell you are the sort to spit right back with a story!   :D

At least you are farther along with your angel stories than I am.
I haven't even picked which ones to use yet - and exactly how to use them.  At the rate I'm going it'll be next year before I get around to it.
I want more time to write, darn it!!!!
It just isn't happening and probably won't for a while.
Besides, that I get distracted from that story and start working on one of the others, and none of them get finished.  Buggers.
But on the other hand, it's just a hobby, not like I have a deadline...except in my head.   :)
Oh, and I like shape shifters - and well, all the other supernatural beings.  They're so much fun to play with!

Yeah, I'd get a lot more written if I wasn't re-reading DF, and spending time on here.   :-\

And that's not even counting all the time RL expects from me.  Ugh.

Yay for you!  You're now over the 16,000 post mark!  Your fingers must be tired.   ;)

This is only my 100th post.  That's pretty good for me.  No way I'll make it as high as you are.  I can live with that.

I just sent you a reply...the file I got back wasn't the one you had just edited.  It was the same one I sent to you.  ???

Oh, ok...I should go back and look at the document again.  Sorry!

Ah, school.  It will demand your time and focus.  It does that.

Now...I'm off to look at your story again...

Ok...got it.  This is better.   :)

I'll work on it later, if I have time, but it most likely it will be tomorrow.

Have fun writing!

I'm off to do RL stuff.  No one else wants to.   :P
