so much for breathers
I got about half of Twelve drafted this morning, along with a small but important section of Thirteen.
I am so addicted to this thing. And it doesn't help when new chapters come along at the exact moment that I should be running out the door for work, and then leave me with cliffhangers... Heh.
I was talking to some friends about my new past-time at dinner last night, and regretting the timing; a year ago, I wasn't working, and I would have had so much more time to devote to writing. But SE disagreed; she said that it's probably better this way, that I can let my work be my work and my creative outlet be something completely separate. Upon consideration, I think she's right. I like my work (although not always my job -- there is a difference), but it's not my life, and shouldn't be.

It is going to be tricky to handle the conversation without using dialogue. And if I quote a line of dialogue, Ry will flay me. Heh! He will be his usual clumsy self in attempting to justify himself afterwards and I hope I can get it to work. Paine must listen to what he is trying to say, not only what he succeeds in getting past his lips. Well, back to work.
