[Weekend] Plans, Writing, and Frustration
On tap...
TODAY:
--trip to Amoeba to sell/buy some CDs & DVDs, perhaps stop at some other stores up in the Haight while we're there
--possible hanging out in park after shopping, if we're up for it
--laundry
TOMORROW:
--Going to see Wicked at the Orpheum on Market Street
--Possible stopping at main library (which is next door to the Orpheum) before the show
----
Other than that, it's a pretty slow weekend for me and I can't complain...I do need to get some writing done, as I've been lazy the last few days due to being somewhat busy and shorthanded at work. I didn't get to work on any poetry yesterday, so maybe I can make up for it by working on something today.
I'm caught up with the outline for Angela Death, so I should work on that for a bit. Or actually before that, perhaps I should work a bit more on creating some more background. I have all these great ideas for this one but they're all in a jumbled mess, so perhaps doing some detailed worldbuilding might be in order.
And perhaps continue with starting chapter 4 of CFMWH. You know, I'm almost thinking I'm having the same issue with CFMWH that I had with Book 3 of the trilogy. I'm not exactly sure what it is, but it feels the same...it's like I'm not happy with the way it's going, the words sound like crap, and I'm just angry that it's not going the way I want it to. I think with this one, though, it might be the same as AD in that I just need to expand on the worldbuilding as well.
Hmmm...perhaps investing in some more steno notebooks might be in order. I find those are the perfect things to use for worldbuilding--they're reasonably compact, they're easy to work with, andI can snag a few from work they're pretty cheap.
More on these two items later...
-----------------
Speaking of trilogy...
Never fear, the online release of said trilogy is still in my mind. There's a good chance I may work on some of it this weekend--that is, the website. I have a few ideas I want to toy with--banners, layout, and other things. More on this real soon! :)
-----------------
Other than that...hope everyone's having a good weekend! :D
