you better stop, and look around
In five minutes, it will be 6pm and I can have a beer. (I have a rule - no alcohol until after 6pm. It's a thing, I don't know.)
Soooo, I didn't get to take this afternoon off - I had to run an extension of the experiment we've been doing all week, plus have a meeting with my boss so he could give me a list of stuff to do next week while he's off.
Oh, God, I have so much to do. On the plus side - I'm taking ALL of next Tuesday off. I plan to have a massage (with a lovely woman who also does aromatherapy and is so reasonably priced) and sit in a cafe and read and write all day. It's a Me Day. I'm looking forward to it.
Jenny Crusie was talking on her blog the other day about Discovery Drafts and I feel like that's what my Het Big Bangs end up being. They're the bare bones of something that I really should go back and expand upon, but that's often where I run into a block. How do you slow down and actually expand on something? I don't know how to elaborate and draw things out. Which leads me to wondering what I could do for a Het Big Bang this year that would be helpful for me in the long run. What's an idea that I could expand on? (I'm still eyeing Karen Page and Frank Castle but maybe he's a ghost? Or maybe they end up traveling together for some reason? I don't know.)
This leads me to my next question - (and I may have asked this before) - but what is everyone's opinion on the filing off of fanfic serial numbers and re-jigging fic for publishing purposes?
Eee! It's 6pm! There's a Corona in the fridge with my name on it and I even have limes!
Happy Friday! ♥
