Okay, between bouts of frantic games of Plants vs. Zombies & Scrabble online, I am writing. Writing is a strange occupation if you think about it. We create worlds and characters in our heads and often think about cruel things to do to those characters. My poor characters are going to be put through many many tortures in the next 3 Familiar's Tale books-but I am also a believer on happy endings-for some.
I am also angling to play Skyrim-we just bought the game. Nothing boosts the creative juices like a dragon chasing you whilst you try not to pee your armor. But in between I am getting some great stuff written for book 3 and the new fantasy book for a new series. So, as I am off work today in Seattle due to freezing blizzard conditions, I shall put my creative juices to proper use and write a new chapter of excitement where Mellypip is trying to teach a baby dragon to read. This goes well until Mellypip's scrolls end up burning from the dragon's burps of flames when he has an upset tummy. Dragons are very high high maintenance.
More later.
