well, fooey
It looks like the last few times I uploaded my work to googledocs I deleted the wrong ones, so I'm not out a couple hundred words but more than three thousand.
It's distracting to try to write downstairs after doing it upstairs for a couple of months. I will have to remedy that as soon as I can afford to do what needs to be done.
Oh well.
Back to work.
On another front, I have to make marmalade soon. We are nearly to the too many stage of lemon production.
On yet another front, I woke up in the middle of the night with a mild fever so I ditched all my plans for the rest of the weekend and played with little graphics. I am making a build-a-yurt kit for the Sims 2. It's all pretty clever, but I am not sure I am making the little things as beautiful as they could be. I'm using a combination of photo manipulation and hand drawing, with emphasis on hand drawing because straight up photoskinning looks terrible on Sims things. And yes, this is also a response to the setback on the writing front. However, I am ready to re-write three thousand words and go forward now.
Three thousand words is one very, very intensive day, or two or three normal ones, or six lazy ones. For me, with this book, I mean.
edit: it's really odd. Now I think the problem is in googledocs, because I had carefully set all the chapters to be readable by "anybody with the link," and when I looked closely, all the newer ones had been changed to private. This is alarming: I had thought googledocs was stable. Now what?
