Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Every so often, when people lament the lack of flying cars, I think of when the speeders hit the speedbump on my street.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Congratulations, and damn but that's a splendid cover!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Congratulations, Sox!
I've been playing around with a story in my head for a while now, and some of it has actually been coming together over the last few weeks. I have most of the characters fleshed out and some of the plot wprked out in my head. TCG just spent some time doing some research for me on locations, gas mileage, the cost of gas, etc. It probably would have taken me all day to find out the information he figured out in an hour.

Because books.
That's nice, sj! I never look up that stuff until I have to, because I'm lazy.

It was essential information that I needed to start the story, which I did today! Not just notes and ideas, which I have been jotting down for a while but actual writing. Which I'm sure is complete crap, but it's still words on the page.

Words on the page is all you need right. Just keep writing!
I actually started a new project today, too. I have one whole paragraph, but I feel like I know where I'm going. It's a plain old adult novel, though, which is a little frightening.

Also, it got picked up by 'Submit That Story Already'. That sounds cool, but admittedly I've never heard of that site before.

Always Anti-fascist!
It looks like my police detective wants his own story. I have read other writers talking about characters hijacking stories, but this is a first for me... maybe it's all the procedure I've been reading lately.
