Working on a new short that won't leave me alone. Should be done tomorrow, and then Sunday (gulp!) I record it for Great Hites. I'm scared. You all should be too.

Starting line:
It was the absence of sound that woke her.

Ending line:
Thunder rumbled, off in the distance, low and deep.

Darling:
She stood and stretched slowly, feeling her body ache in response. Last weekend, Joe had been in one of his moods, angry at the world, and her skin had been the canvas upon which he painted his revenge. For the last time, although neither of them had known it at the time. Brianna wouldn't miss the beatings, but she would miss his guilt; he was always so tender afterwards, caring for her, easing the pain. She would miss his kisses. For a while, anyways, until she found someone else.

There was always someone else.
Today, I am writing. The P&E nomination (I'm at #6 right now, btw!!!) has fired me up again, so I'm pulling out Belladonna Dreams and I'm going to get words today. I need to get this book out. I need to sub it. I need to know that I can make a sale like that.

I need to see what prompt I want for [livejournal.com profile] musemuggers too. I'm having a bit noodle around in my head, but I'm not sure what yet. A White Knight...possible.

More later. I'm in FM and DII - and getting a little sun on the side. ;)
I'm starting to like mornings. Someone shoot me now.

But how can you argue when you have not one, but TWO mugs of good tea (Nutcracker Sweet in the travel mug, and Blueberry Pomegranite White Tea in the regular mug), a warmer to keep the regular mug warm and the knowledge that by 5 pm, you'll be done at work? Not to mention a story that won't leave you alone? *sigh*

So I guess I'm working on Tris today (no, you haven't met Tris and yes, you will at some point). I just have to figure out what the darn ending to the story is- maybe I write shorts organically? I dunno.

Played WoW last night, because I'm STILL frustrated with Seasons. Honestly, I think I'm going to revise Dreams first and get that out the door this month, because at least I don't feel like a hack writing that one.

Work - meh. I'm really starting to get frustrated over the whole thing and am actively looking for another job here. I'm just done with "Well, we don't know what to do - oh, yeah - we'll dump it on the Masters! Oh, and more money? Nah, you don't need more money." Bah.

Why, yes, we're lit AGAIN. Why do you ask? (And we're supposed to be backup. Not freaking FRONT LINE!)
