Because maybe you're gonna be the one that saves me...

I need to learn to control some of the writing habits I've developed when I'm writing in public. Mostly because I just look insane.

Like... I have a habit of saying dialogue aloud to myself as I write it, just to make sure it sounds right. Which, you know, is well enough when I'm alone. But lately I haven't had the time to write when I'm alone, so I just do it in whatever spare moments I have during the day. I'm working at the front, it gets slow, nobody comes by for a good ten or fifteen minutes, and... yeah.

So yesterday, I'm standing there by the front register, frowning at my notebook and rambling to myself in Ten-voice. And someone walks in. And I don't notice for a good fifteen seconds.

...I think I rather disturbed him, but that's okay! (But of course, it had to be Ten-voice. Because he always sounds the most crazy. *Facepalm* I am a huge dork, guys! I hope you all realize this!)

In other news, I've started the fic that is going to thoroughly break me to write. I would just like to say as a disclaimer beforehand, I DO NOT HATE MARTHA. I repeat, I DO NOT HATE MARTHA! She's actually my favorite character in the entirety of Doctor Who. I just... do horrible, horrible things to her.

That is all.

Just that after I finish this (and God knows when that'll be - it promises to be a long and painful fic) I need to write a long, happy story. Not that I really have any plotbunnies available for happy fics - the other two long-fic plotbunnies I have are also angsty. ...Well, there is that one with Torchwood...

*laughs* Yeah, those sorts of things usually are. Then again, if it was me who had done it, I would have probably played it up or something, because I have Zero Shame. Insane? Me? Naaaah.

And I feel better about it, now that you've reminded me of that. ♥

Heee! ♥ Making people feel better through character abuse, that's me. (Sorry, Paige.)

*Snerk* I very well might have played it up if I weren't at work. That does make me tone it down a bit.

*snort* That's true. The joys of fandom-related craziness are not worth getting fired over. XD

All I have to do is find a job where no one minds. *Grins* ...Of course, considering that I intend to someday make my living writing television... Yeah, that works out just fine.
