*that* was good

Ok, so today I'd promised myself I'd try to finish the Stolen story, since I've only got two weeks left to have it totally ready, and I didn't work on it at all last weekend.

I sat down at the computer about...4, I think, and proceeded to waste an hour and a half on distractions (watched a movie, read LJ, chatted with [livejournal.com profile] fallenicon, did google searches).

I was starting to get really fed up with myself, thinking that I wasn't going to be able to do this after all. [livejournal.com profile] fallenicon suggested I give myself time in March, since Feburary was a short month, but I don't think so...

So I put on some fairly bitter music (playlist will follow), turned off all the lights, lit a few candles, and smoked a clove. I pulled out my scribble book and jotted down a few ideas, but then didn't need to worry about it.

Stuff just came. Good stuff, too, a part I wasn't sure how to write. A good lead to the end.

I did about 1200 words tonight, which puts me a bit over 4,000. I also have only about two more scenes to write til the end. I think I'll try to write after work this week, and if that doesn't happen, I'll finish it next weekend.

[livejournal.com profile] zevhonith, did you get the copy I sent you as an attachment? Did you look at it?
