matrixrefugeeOr, Why I Need a Laptop or a Blackberry
I love doing "coffeeshop writing", ie. going to the Starbucks in the Target in Lowell and writing there over a cup of chai, maybe a blueberry scone. And by writing, I mean writing longhand in a journal or somesuch. What I don't like, at least right now: typing it up. I'm not sure where this is coming from, but it's the reason I haven't spread any Fanfic Roses in a few days. I have several in the editing room, they just need to find their way into the can, but for some reason, I've been looking at the MSs and cringing. Which isn't helping the situation and is causing a backlog of fics. Wish I could figure out why I'm so loathe to type the fics. :: Mutters at self:: Managed to get a good chunk of an Cal Leandros fic written: I'm getting the hang of Niko's voice, and the story seems to be getting longer than I'd originally planned, but stories need to be as long or as short as they need to be. And I have my Mercy/Tatsumi fic aaaalmost done, though I may just post the middle of it, since it decided it's taking place later in their relationship, when they've moved from "friends with benefits" to something more serious.
Picked up several good deals on marked-down candy and other Valentine's Day things at Target, including a heart-shaped cereal/soup bowl, a heart-shaped snack plate and a cuddly fleece throw blanket printed with red, pink and white hearts.
