Project: One Of These Days I'll Think Of A Title Romance Novel
Deadline: haven't got one
New words written: 541
Present total word count: 32485
Reason for stopping: laptop is burning my legs
Mean things: they are saying goodbye
Fun things: kissing
Stimulants: it would probably be good if I ate more often
You know what sucks?
Writing transition scenes.
You know what I was writing today?
Yep, you guessed it.
This is probably why I spent so much time today getting my pictures folder transferred onto the laptop - the "migration assistant" widget wasn't cooperating, but I managed the "target disk mode" thing eventually - and then organizing that into sub-folders, so I can perform the vital task of embellishing my tumblr posts with reaction gifs of the Eighth Doctor saying "WTF?" and other such nonsense.
mswyrr asked me a Kiss, Marry, Get Drunk With about my characters. (I approve of that variant over Shag, Cliff, Marry - I'm a softy.) I told her she was mean, but I worked it out: kiss Caroline, the bride, because she is a very sweet kisser; marry Thorne, the lieutenant, because legally he isn't married; and get drunk with Rockingham, the viscount, because he'll have the best wicked stories to tell.
I am sure there's plenty of room in that seventeenth-century pile for me.
