The Dangers of Sneezing
So, I sneezed mid-walk last Saturday and put my back out. Yup, an innocent little sneeze has left me in serious agony. According to my chiropractor, I have sprained a joint at the base of my spine and possibly another smaller sprain slightly above the first one. This is, she says, a freak occurance (no, really?) but a violent sneeze will do it ( Read more... ) -
Script Frenzy
I've done NaNo a couple of times now but this is my first effort at Script Frenzy - the idea is to write 100 pages during the month of April, which should roughly equate to about an hour and a half of screen time. Unlike NaNo, you can do this with a partner, so I have roped
