Going through the Motions:

Posted by John on June 8th, 2010 at 10:01 pm · 2 Comments

Only for another ten days!

I’m learning something–I seem to be most successful at writing if I make it my first priority of the day. Today I completed a rewrite on a 1300 short short and got an excellent critique back. Then other things, important things, took over: workworkwork (“Goooooing through the motions~~~”), cooking dinner, teaching GameBoy how to fix a flat tire. By the time I was sitting at my computer again, I only had the energy to look up YouTube clips of “Once More with Feeling”, the Buffy musical episode.

I should note that work has gotten crazy in part because I’m trying to get everything ready to run without me for six weeks. It’s for a good cause, so I can’t complain.

So that was my day. A burst of writing early on, then work and family. No exercise, but tomorrow’s a climb class day. How was yours?
