superhero_muses--What are some of your favorite words, and why?
Oh, um...I love twilight and dusk, both because they're lovely words and I also love that time of day. I used to use eldritch so much when writing that people told me they could recognize anonymous stories as by me because of it, so I've backed off it a lot. :P Cacophony. Sussurus. Cerulean. There are so many...
Suffering some middle-story lag this week, the price of writing two long stories at once. Had some fraught discussion with my beta about the need to kick the action up a bit and move forward--I'm a bit reluctant to, simply because I'm enjoying the worlds and don't want to move ahead and finish. But it's got to end or it's not complete, and things have to move forward or they can't end... How about you, what's catching your attention this week?

It's an enforced rest and relaxation vacation so there's little time on the computer. Even posting this was stealing time. ;)
"Enforced rest and relaxation" sounds like it might hit the spot right now! And your email did reach me with the story! I'm hoping to get to read it before the weekend ends, if I can convince "real" life to cut me some slack... :)
