Current Location:: ugh, do I hate the smell of chamomile tea...

I'm writing this from someone else's computer. (One of the approx. 10 in the house...)

I am not being held hostage, have not broken anything, or lost my Internet service.
I have, however, decided, to revoke my connection privileges until I remember how to Write for Serious.

I'm kind of using NaNo as an excuse.
I'm not sure I'm going to be focusing on word-count so much as writing ONLY for some time every day.

Obviously, I'm going through withdrawal. I've only scribbled on two pages so far, though I did also create a bad map, racial distinctions, and
decide to make international tensions a much bigger factor in my heroine's Senior Project. I may be here every day just to whine.

But. I DIDN'T get on the Internet probably 8 times before I came out to take a break.

Current Research Roster:
Odd Girl Out: bullying among girls
Introvert Power: reclaiming the internal gifts
Blink: what we know without thinking

Last two years I was clearing up from a Pumpkin Festival, and working part-time, but of course this is the year I go all slacker-slacks.

Good luck to you to, whatever you do!~

Good luck! --and I feel your pain. I have sworn to myself that I absolutely will not use the internet until I have written my 1,700 words for the day, and while so far it seems to be helping, it's really pathetic how I keep wanting to call up my browser at the end of every sentence.

Yesterday it was really bad.

I did break down and put in my network card some time in the afternoon. Today I'm not feeling so squirrelly. Could be that I interposed coffee where the Internet is supposed to go, which is not something I'm supposed to have, but...

I wrote quite a bit! Come see my next post on the shadow-side of that bit of truth...
