Frankenstorm
As I kind of expected, Frankenstorm isn't really doing much to Salem other than making me miss a day's pay. And I really need that, as having my old job at Pyramid back is extremely temporary. Kellie's going to try to cheat me as many hours as she can after Halloween, but it's not something to count on.
Obviously I'm glad the storm's not mercilessly pounding Massachusetts, but the fact that it's been a pretty standard rainy, windy day is really anticlimactic. We didn't even lose power in our apartment. I'm actually sitting in my little closet of a room with the lights off and candles lit to simulate a spookier atmosphere for writing purposes. It's working out so far. I'm taking a little break to goof off, but I've organized the disparate scenes of my latest MLR submission and turned them into a working draft. I've got to write a few in-between scenes, then I can get back to progressing the story. I do have to do a little more research before I can cap it off though, but I'm confident I can get through the needed books in a couple of sittings.
At least Sandy's given me time to write, and provided a certain ambiance for it.
