Wonders if this one will actually post....

[tboy]

Well, I had a very long ramble to post last night, but LJ simply would not let me do it. Probably just as well, and I shall take it as a sign ;-). Depressed bitchiness is best left unexpressed.

Perhaps a little judicious cutting and pasting of selections of it will suffice for today. Let's see, what might be fit to print?

Well, there's my

Ohhhhhhh, and here I was thinking that you think that JKR will release another book when the series is over, and that you're sharing your thoughts on that potential Book 8 with us!! ;)

[tboy]

Did I say book 8? I did, didn't I. Oops. LOL. I think that was wishful thinking on my part. ;-) Perhaps another coffee might help as well.

If LJ will let me, I'll go back and edit that. It might take a few hours though, if the current behaviour of my computer is any guide.

Don't get too down about the writing. Sometimes you just have to get the crap out of your system before the good words will come to the party. I know I've certainly had that experience at times, and another friend of mine has been going through that lately, too. Clear away what you've written and start again, and the next bit of writing will almost certainly make you happier. You know what's NOT working, which is always a good starting point.

I'm sorry you don't feel up to writing the Dumbledore speculation stuff. It's an interesting piece of speculation I haven't seen elsewhere, anyway!

The end of The Parting of the Ways makes me cry every time. *sniffle*

Hope you can get to the bottom of the computer problems.

Thanks, L. It's rather offputting to sit down and write only to watch crap appear. Doesn't do ones self esteem a whole lotta favours!

This computer --- gaaaah! I made pver a dozen attempts to reply to you in another post earlier. I think it's gone through now. Nothing's going well with it, and I don't think it's the ISP any longer. Most frustrating.

You made my 4 a.m. seem quite reasonable *g*

BTW, they are only excerpts from the Hatstand Express 'zines - I copied the Meg Lewtan bits for Hae. Karen has the originals.

Sorry about the ongoing computer blues :-(

[tboy]

I've never read any zines, so even an excerpt is a new experience :-).

Hope I get enough sleep to function tomorrow. Must cut out the coffee now or I won't stand a chance.

The computer is... not fun. But never mind. I'll find ways and means to get it back in working order somehow, even if it has to be wiped again. I just wish it wasn't this month, as the bills are piled up again. *shrug* Waddya do? I know! I go read your hard copies! :-D
