So...did some writing today. Not on my novel, lamentably, but writing just the same. Sigh. Felt good. As always. I just...*love* what I do. If only I could remember that more often. There's so much joy and accomplishment in threading my words into a tapestry of scene and story. And I might very well look tomorrow at the snippet I've written and think it's awful, but for now I'm terribly proud of it.

Inching closer to a Fateful Meeting between the two main characters. Eeee! So excited! And the character I'm writing right now is so delightfully consistent. With *such* a voice. (Yes, throw me a parade...I *am* storming about praising myself...sorry.) Sometimes I look at what I've written and there's this odd duality to it. As though, yes, I've written that, but at the same time, no, I'm not sure quite how I managed it. I imagine, were I ever to meet myself, that's how it would feel. Simultaneously Me and Not-Me.

Your Birthdate: August 14

With a birthday on the 14th of the month (5 energy) you are inclined to work well with people and enjoy them. You are talented and versatile, very good at presenting ideas, and you are also very good at organization and systematizing. You may have a tendency to get itchy feet at times and need change and travel. You tend to be very progressive, imaginative and adaptable. Your mind is quick, clever and analytical. A restlessness in your nature may make you a bit impatient and easily bored with routine, and rebel against it. You have a tendency to shirk responsibility.

I'm not sure about the adaptable part...or the shirking responsibility bit...but, yes, that does sound rather like me. I'm a wonderful person, if I do say so myself. ::buffing fingernails on shirt:: Should you wish to pay tribute, I take cash or credit card.... ;)
