As you have all probably noticed, I am a slackass.
Well, I prefer to think that RL has intervened in my creative process, and all of my creative energy has been expended in grading, trying not to kill students, family, and other annoying people, and generally getting through the day without creating yet more emotional crises - and to that end, I have been, for the most part, successful.
But slackassery at writing has been the cost of such self restraint.
NOW, though, I am in the denouement of the semester (see how I did that, injecting some writery language in there?) and I am setting myself a deadline. Yes a DEADLINE.
I will finish ONE STORY BY THE END OF NEXT WEEK.
And to make this concrete - that means MAY 15.
I think I know which one it is, but as I am working on two Mag 7 at the moment, I could be wrong.
Anyone want to join me in this insane adventure???
I notice, by the by, that we do have some awesome writing going on! Shout-out to
deannie and
tarlan for recent post and a hope that
todeskun is still working on her personal goals!
ETA - the awesome
randi2204 who has another addition to the awesome Pacific Rim series!
