GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

The drabbles continue to amaze.

ION, I just completed my first thousand words on my WIP after almost a year of ignoring it last night, and wow, it's pretty rough. I need to get my writing brain back in gear again. But at least I'm writing again. Here's hoping I can stick with it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

After 13 years of knocking this idea around in various forms, I finally have a structure, outline, and plan of attack for what I guess I can now refer to as my WIP.

Feels good.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

_t! Go get 'em!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I finished my paper! I have been told it is a good, strong paper and not bad for my first paper in..ever,

WHOOT!

Now I have to work on the other one that's due a week from Sunday.

Way to go, Aimee. Those papers will be routine for you soon, it's good you're getting off to a strong start.

Thanks for the cheerleading, deb, it got me through a page beyond what I had planned to write today!

Because books.

Many yays! For Kalshane, and Aimee, and -t!

-t, what is the WIP about? Is this the children's book, or something else?

This is a scifi novel about the development of teleportation technology. Light and funny in 28 10 page chapters, with an important plot development every 4 chapters. At least that's what I'm aiming for.

I can't quite figure out what to do with the children's book - I think it is probably too long, but I don't know how to cut it, and sending it cold to agents seems like such a long shot I've pretty much given up. Which is a shame, because I like it and would like to give it a chance, but I'd rather spend my time writing.

Aimee's paper is very good. She edited the hell out of it, too. It's improved 100-fold since I first read it. GO EMPRESS!

-t, go you too! Woot!

-t, that sounds like it's going to be fun! Good luck. And, if you need a beta, I'll be glad to look at it for you. I'm not the fastest turn around, but I will get back to you.

I will happily take you up on that, Sail. Probably next weekendish.
