Well, I am now on nights. I have discovered 2 things about the night shift at my work:
1. People panic at 10 pm and decide they need to call. I never realized I could have calls WAITING at 10:30 at night to talk about their benefits! O_o
2. It's much easier to write at night. Even when all you are doing is silliness - character sketching.
I have a wonderful set of books called Heroes Now! and Heroes of Tomorrow - they are basically collections of random tables to do up a background for a roleplaying character. I use them, however, to make up characters for fun - some of them even get beyond their character life stories into real characters! It gives me a creative outlet and is fun.
I think I'm going to make a bar and put these particular characters in it. I haven't decided yet.
Now to write some more on Belladonna so I'm not totally behind by this weekend.
