I am such a slow writer, y'all. Also, very easily distracted. I think it's not a good idea for me to listen to Ben Folds Five while I write, because I start dancing in my chair and stop paying attention to what I'm doing.
Well, I'm pretty sure I won't make it to 50,000 by the end of the month, but at least I managed to pass that spot this morning where I realized that I actually needed a plot.
Current random things included: a man in a bunny suit, Mr. Abigaza the mussel salesman, and tap dancing.
...
I finished watching Angels in America last night. FUCKING AWESOME. I wept and wailed at the end, not so much because it was sad right then, but because the whole thing had been so full of emotion. Fabulous acting, incredible story. I would love to see the stage play.
Today has mostly been about pretending I was writing while actually adding tags to all my entries, and getting many, many phone calls from wrong numbers. I have to stop answering the phone. It's just that I don't think I've had a phone call in the past two weeks, so I was completely startled when it rang the first time, and then it was actually for me, despite being from an unknown number. And then I thought maybe that would happen again, but not so much.
Okay! I think I'm going to go write more. I left my characters in the middle of a blackout, the poor things.
