Scribble scribble, you tore your ms
Mar. 5th, 2009 12:44 pmBack to work this week. Have a new version of Wild Honey on the backburner, as well as that Tsuchi story I mentioned; did a little thinking on each one yesterday, as well as refamiliarising myself with Strange Flesh. Lots of collaborative projects and other peoples' stuff to get back to, plus a skerrick more of Other Writing Project. Also realised with a dreadful thump that Accelerated Dragon is spinach and I'm going to have to rethink it from scratch.
Today: 500 words on Strange Flesh.

Feb. 25th, 2009 06:20 pmGetting over the trip - had a really good day out, running a million errands, even doing a little bit of writing work (from which I have decided to give myself a week off) - the whole plot of a short story set in the Neolithic, featuring one of the many heroes of my childhood imaginings, basically came to me in a waiting room. (Tsuchi, outcast rabbit-woman paladin, my alter ego around age 11. Tell me about yours.)
Plus I randomly decided to have Korean for lunch. Despite my embarrassing lack of the language, I managed to convey that I'd like the tofu seafood hotpot without seafood. Of course you get all these side dishes as well - the famous kimchi, which I actually liked this time (might have been the less spicy version for wimpy weigugin), pickled cucumbers, scrambled eggs in broth, and potato to which something completely delicious had been done. It was COMPLETELY BRILLIANT. I've brought home a "teach yourself Korean" kit so I can at least learn to say "thank you".
