The boy’s up and about tonight, unlike the last two nights where he went to bed at a decent hour. I was just starting to breathe a sigh of relief at him getting on a decent schedule, so him staying up again has my muse sitting in the corner in a huff.
He is starting to look a little droopy-eyed, though. If he drops off, I may dive into something for a while. I’m about to hit a little action sequence ( And I do mean little. It’s going to be a real “Roar!”, “Eeek!”, -Magic-, “What just happened?” sort of thing ) and that requires a lot of visualization, which will require me not sitting here irritated at the boy fighting to get off a schedule again.
After that, it’s a little plot teasing, then a mixture of character development and sex, and finally the closer that ties together the beginning of the chapter.
I think I may read back through the last chapter of Lowborn I wrote tonight and refresh my memory on that. Might even put a couple of paragraphs for the next chapter down, just to get it started. Having a document saved — no matter how miniscule — seems to give me something to push toward and motivate me.
Watching my latest story in my third pen name. It had its run at SOL, and now it’s enjoying a good showing at Lit as well. The feedback from my writing is always encouraging. Maybe that will help me get over being irritated at the young one *laugh*
EDIT — Just read back through Lowborn Ch. 06, and I don’t like where I left off. The chapter is a little short anyway, so I think I may be finishing that one rather than starting a new one. I changed my mind about how the next scene is going to go down, and a little more added to this chapter will give me a more exciting cliffhanger.
