Okay. The Doubt Demons are starting to surface. This story is way, way, way beyond what a Authurian tale normally is. And because of this, is it complete pants?

I’m hitting all the marks for the various myths. A surprising amount actually, LOL. They’re just twisted into a story that even makes me go: “What the f-?”

Write it and see. That’s all I can do. And if Teebee’s nice to me (hi, Teebee!) then she can do an excellent Freddie Kruger on it *grin* Then it might make better sense.

But we’ll see.

Plot Bunny meets my Subconscious head on…

Well, it’s… erm… interesting.

A plot bunny just jumped out and bit me. Bugger.

My plot was sorted. Morgan had done what she had done. Nimue could sort it. But no. Attack of the Plot Bunny. Now I have to sort this bit out. Should be more interesting though. Especially since Merlin is insane and currently hiding in a bush, LOL

Back to the wip

Yesterday, with two small hobbits and The Ent running rampage, I got little done.

Merlin has slipped over my self-imposed deadline. There’re about 2 scenes left, possibly 3. And then I remembered that in the centre of the story I wrote *insert sex scene here*. Bum.

When I’ve finished writing a sex scene, it’s fine. Well, more than fine. The editor for The Billionaire’s Seduction called the new bath scene delicious (thank you, Linda, hehe). It’s getting into it in the first place… Ho hum.

That’s the scene, not the bath, btw…

So the plan for today is to try and get the story finished, then go back and write sex *grin*

I have time as The Ent has taken Frodo and Samwise to the park. Unfortunately, those gits at Sky One are about to put Stargate’s Divide and Conquer on. As I said, complete gits.

Off to sit in front of the teleivision with my laptop and try to get into Nimue’s head.

*phew* It’s Crossroads. So I’m staying right here. Besides one scene about ‘sparkage’, it’s dull.

I put my blog into space. As you do…

I was messing about on BlogExplosion and sifting through the enormity of blogs and found one that would send your ramblings into space to annoy local aliens. Good a reason as any, I thought. The link’s over on the right. *grin*

Exploding just got rejected by Luna.

There was a paragraph of feed back – but it’s not really concrete enough to work on.
I’m feeling oddly numb about it. The ms is still out with two other pubs… So we’ll see

The tatties are on. The haggis is waiting. There’re are no no neeps as I can’t stand them… Yeuk! Green beans and peas instead. I’m sure old Rabbie is spinning, LOL

No writing today. Just a day of phoning Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Speech Therapists – who are always the most difficult to contact – and organising a day of activities for Frodo in the February half term.

And Treebeard – who know doesn’t want to be known as Treebeard anymore… he just wants to be The Ent – has said that he’ll sort out my FTP.
Oh look. What’s that flying over the broad canopy of leaves?

Hoom Hom.

Thanks for the kind words about The Apprentice *grin*. Just wanted to reply here, because the machine ate your comment, LOL Don’t ask me how, I have no idea…

Found it in my emails *grin*

Kim, The Apprentice was a wonderful tale. You should consider revisiting and adding
to it. It has the beginnings of a full length, and a darned good one at that!

Yup – It turned out to be a prologue. That was completely unexpected. The way my writing is going – it will probably be the next novel after Alchemy. But as yet, I have no idea what it’ll be about, LOL

I got over the writing hump this morning. Which is cool – cos it was bugging me that I couldn’t move the scene forward. I’m almost at the end and that is just not fair, LOL. But it’s sorted. And I tied up one problem I was having into the theme. Which is double cool. *grin*

Exploding went down well, I think. It was met with a sort of stunned silence on one half of the room. And, of course, next week no one will be sitting next to me.

Which reminds me. I bottled out of phoning NY. I’m going to wait until the end of the month. It’s been in their office a fair amount of time. It can wait that bit longer.

I also realised today that if Treebeard hates the Hero from Exploding, he’s going to despise the Hero from Alchemy.

Tough. *insert evil cackling here*

Anyway, back to Nimue and her revenge…

I want to get Merlin’s Price finished. I do. Honest.

So what have I spent the morning doing? Besides trying to convince a very tired Samwise that he does need to go to sleep. I’ve been Blog-Dogging. My word. Just invented it right now. Probably *grin*

I will now stop racing through blogs. Sniffing bits here, giving others a test lick.
All right. That’s probably too much dog metaphor.
I have new ideas what to do with mine. Which is good.
I can see why Blogs are addictive, though.

So much easier to mess about with, update, and generally have fun with, than a static website. Well, it would be if I could arm-twist the pass word for the Web FTB out of Treebeard.

I’m now on the hunt for banner software. They seem to be another key weapon in the battle to self advertise.

It’s… 13:00… so I’ll probably get in some reading for the course tonight. Some overly long, short stories. Hmmm

I sent the first 2 pages of Exploding… That’ll be fun. *WEG*
