So I've thought about it and thought about it, and I've decided to unofficially put the Sira novel on hold. Again. This seems to happen a lot: I spend a few months on it, then I put it on hold because I planned to devote some time to another project, then I pick it up again. In this case, I promised myself I'd be prepping for the Mae Fortune ( Read more... )

I originally planned to write a lengthy entry about CLO's production of Into the Woods, but as I've already told a lot of people in person about it, I'll just give the bare-bones highlights.

Ugh. I got plenty of sleep last night (in theory), but it wasn't a good sleep.

I wanted to wait at least until I had written her backstory and gotten to know her better before plunging back ( Read more... )

The Adventures of Mae Fortune, first draft, completed September 27th, 10:30 p.m.

But at least it's done, finally ( Read more... )

I just finished the second-to-last chapter in the Mae novel. This includes the entire climax.

*collapses*

[Only one more chapter to go, and that's just wrap-up! Come on, muse, stay with me just a little longer! I can see the finish line!]

Oh man, my grey matter is so totally fried today I'm not even sure if I'll be able to write during my breaks today. Or even read. I just want soft, cottony silence up there ( Read more... )
