I'm supposed to be writing, but I'm getting distracted by Ron/Hermione pictures on Facebook.

The TARDIS with David Tennant
Jealous of the sonic! :D

Can I borrow that enthusiasm? :D I don't mind them right now when I'm taking notes of everything that has to be fixed but when it comes to actually going through with all of these changes and the final polish...I can just never find the motivation.

Yeah you can borrow it... but I think I only like revisions that much b/c I'm a very clean 1st-drafter. I think about almost every word as I type it, so I don't have much cleaning up to do in the aftermath...

The TARDIS (I hope)
I know! He's also writing a script for a possible Disney show.
Unlike most celebrities, I think that he will be able to pull off a really good book.

YouTube should have a repeat button.

ETA: Is it weird that I'm applying uni's 10% leverage guidelines for essays to my ideal chapter word counts in my first draft?

I mean, she closed her eyes, so it's a given that she'll survive. The people who are killed off shows almost always die with their eyes wide open. On top of that Castle wouldn't be Castle without Beckett.
But ARGH!

I use a site called "Youtube repeat" for that very purpose.

So, internet borrowed from a neighbor for now. Will be spotty.

There's nothing quite as depressing as realizing you need to re-write the scene you just wrote before you can move on.

OKAY. Today I will reoutline this scene and push through to get a working first draft. Then I am allowed to work on my next blog post.

YEAH! DETERMINATION!
