*cackles heartlessly* Organisation won't save you, m'dear. The other day I found a whole list of titles on the 'To Write' section of my database which mean nothing to me. Even the little notes about who the main characters are don't help. The chaos creeps in, whatever you try.
*grumble* The very least I ask of me is that me stops scattering conversations through my electronic receipts! >:(
And, erm, rather comforting to hear I'm not the only one that happens to. >_> I actually have a .txt file from 2005 describing a character I cannot for the life of me remember now. I know I wrote her as some sort of viewpoint character, but what, who and where she was supposed to be viewpoint-ing ... dunno O_o
Crunchy, definitely crunchy if it's alone on toast. If it's getting cheese melted over the top of it I don't mind smooth, mind you. *sage nod*
Hem, right then. *lifts red-hot 'writing filter' brand out of the fire' This won't hurt a bit ...
Weeell, not compared to the drafts themselves, anyway.
I'd reserve judgement if I were you, but yes, you are now on the filter, Darian me dear! Ta!
This -would- be the perfect juncture for me to complain about no new chapters, but then 2007 was a less than stellar performance here as well ;P Don't worry, any progress is still progress! Just remember you're on to a winner with that duo - those two were made to work together - and the rest of the story will follow eventually.
Actually, have you ever considered doing a character meme/short/snippet/random disembodied conversation with Erkkan, Meryn or both? You might be surprised how gatecrashing characters' homes gives you ideas for later on ;)
Indeed indeed, good point, that. SO much better than the alternative. I'd probably have tried to eat my desk if I'd done without much longer ... :/
Sometimes I think The Muse Brigade is like those wish-fulfilling genies who try to sabotage every boon you ask of them XD *cackles*
"It's the middle of my visa applications and moving overseas and I'm ridiculously busy! Could you not let any random ideas through, please?" If you say so. *four months later* "Um, it's summer holidays now ... hello? Hello?" *another four months later* "Hello?!" Oh. What? "Where've you been?!" I do recall you asking that you not be troubled. "That was EIGHT MONTHS ago, you bastard! You can stop playing bouncer now ifyoudon'tmindthankyouverymuch!" Very well. *eyeing notes battlefield two weeks later* "... you absolute git."
You can't life without peanut butter, your teeth will fall out and hair will grow in their place if you don't eat it enough. Experimentation showed that at average humans can abstain from eating it without long term effect for 11 months (one month more for each missing wisdom tooth).
Please put me on the writings list, even though at the moment I've not much time to actual read anything, it's good to have a list of new stuff when the time comes...
Ah. I always suspected as much. *grimly* No time to lose! One bowl of unsalted peanut butter melted over icecream (another known curative), stat!
As always, things I write will be paddling about indefinitely in the space-time continuum, so no rush to read required. I might even ... *swallows* ... update my story database.

Smooth or crunchy peanut butter?

*patpats* Poor note-taking creature. On the bright side you're writing again?
