It's been forever

Apr 30, 2013 19:03

Yes it's been forever since I posted. I so apologize about that.  Livejournal helped me through my Downton Abbey obsession which now has been blown apart by a mad dictator has moved onto other new fandoms.  Right now I'm writing fanfiction on Castle.

And that leads me to why I'm posting here.  If anyone can appreciate my horror at what I did today, it's my LJ friends.

Today I sent a chapter off to be beta'd.  I meant to send it to a fellow friend online.  Instead, I accidentally sent it to my CPA.  Chapter 12.  Of a Castle fanfiction story I'm writing.  I not only sent her this story (in rough draft form) but asked her to read it over for errors and send it back to me by this meeting.

It would have been better if I had done this earlier.  She is a CPA and during tax time they barely have time to eat and breathe.  But no, I sent it to her now.

I do not share with my real life friends I write fanfiction.  Some people have complimented my writing and it would probably be nice to share such things with people I know in person.  But for some reason the mere thought of it makes me want to rush into my bedroom, dive into the bed and throw the covers over my bed.

Anyway, I needed to get that off my chest.  And hope this is the last time I ever do something like this.  I usually make myself feel better over boneheaded mistakes by saying "If that's the worst thing I do this week, then this will be a good week," but that is not comforting at all.
