Can you spell Frustrated?
Yes. a-c-t-u-a-l-l-y-m-y-f-a-u-l-t.
But it's easier to lay the blame elsewhere. Watch a master at work: For crying out loud. I need another sign on my door.
I'm working. Leave me alone. And for another thing, I am so sick of reading my chapters for The Rake that I can hardly stand it and have actually said, "okay" when someone bugs me when I'm supposed to be writing. I also wrote a 17 page story this weekend that I think reveals I have a sick mind. Oh well. It was fun anyway and I'm glad I did it because an interesting voice came out of that. See, the thing is, I believe in at least exploring no-holds-barred ideas, just to see what pops out. Sometimes it's politically incorrect. Oh well.
Still writing related, I signed up for Engl 535 (Directed writing) at school with one of the fiction people at SSU, so tomorrow I will turn in the despised 3 chapters noted above and briefly turn my attention to another project, probably Shift, but maybe it makes more sense to work on the elf thing. I'll figure that out tomorrow, I guess, but something I can turn in for 535. I want to finish the MA. I hate hate despise hate, turning in my writing because I'm afraid it sucks.
And speaking of that, I'm freaking about reviews. They're lurking out there for A Darker Crimson, waiting to crush me. That's exactly how it feels.
