But I know I'm a better dreamer and a better loner and a better fighter somewhere out there...

Guess what, internet? I wrote a fic this week! And it was not for [livejournal.com profile] writerinadrawer!

...I wrote a fic for WIAD too, last minute as usual, and fully expect to get drawered for it because wow, I really feel like I halfassed it this time, but... we'll see.

I also copied my fic journal over to Dreamwidth, so you can now find my fic at [livejournal.com profile] find_rightbrain or (shockingly) [info - personal] find_rightbrain! I still need to poke at some of the CSS on my DW layout, because parts of it are driving me crazy, but I don't have the energy for that now. It's readable and nice and monochrome, and that's all I care about at the moment.

Things to do tonight:
- Actually do modstuff for the Rift. I have failed so hard at it lately, and I am very, very sorry, players. (And other mods.) I still love you!
- Poke at at least one of the fics sitting unfinished in my GoogleDocs. Try to work up some writing momentum here.
- Clear those LAST FEW TAGS out of my inbox. I am ALMOST DONE.
- ...I'm probably forgetting something, but I'll focus on those things for now. Being productive is nice.

Things I need to not do tonight:
- Get distracted by Animorphs again. ...I found some ebooks on the internet. IT IS A PROBLEM.

You do not fail. :| There are just times when, you know, you aren't superhuman. IT HAPPENS, Y'KNOW. <3

Also, YAY FOR WRITING JOURNALS AND THINGS. I still need to set one up.

BUT WHY AM I NOT SUPERHUMAN? (I'm working on it, honestly I am. :| )

Writing journals are awesome and make me happy! ...but that's probably partially my crazy organization geek talking.

YAY DOING STUFF.

Animorphs is WAY distracting. I was on a reread kick for a while (I actually own the entire series) and while you can read one pretty fast, they're just... there and stuff.

DOING STUFF IS AWESOME.

It really is. I spent most of yesterday, when I wasn't flailing at WIAD, reading The Andalite Chronicles. ...I think Ellimists are not-so-secretly Time Lords.

GOD AUBREY APPROVE MY APP. *fistshake*

(Also, I have all the Animorphs books as ebooks...y'know, if you want them. I am a book drug dealer.)

I WILL DO THAT. LATER TODAY. When my head isn't doing its very best to implode. :|

OMG, I sent it in, like, TWO WHOLE DAYS AGO. WHY ISN'T IT APPROVED YET? :P

I need to reread them! Except I actually have a list of series of books I need to reread, sdflkjd. Being a nostalgic geek is SO HARD sometimes.

There is totally no shame in getting distracted by Animorphs! (mind you, I would say that given that I only recently finished re-reading the lot of them so may be just a wee bit biased ...)

It's awesome to reread them after god knows how many years (and I never actually finished the series), but I just keep going "Oh, I'll just finish this book and get back to writing." And then an hour later I realize I've finished the book I was on and moved on to the next one without meaning to. *Facepalm*

I do that all the time! It's incredibly annoying when you suddenly realise that that the hour that you were totally going to spend working on something useful has turned into seventy games of Minesweeper or four more Animorphs books!

They are great though. I really enjoyed re-reading them all - they're just as good as I remembered.

I'd just like to say that I am indeed interested in reading your Torchwood fic, but I hesitate to do so now, not having seen _Children of Earth_ yet. I expect to have seen it within the next two weeks or so, and then I'll be right along to your fic journal!

Heh. I have gotten a bit carried away with the post-CoE fic since it aired... I'm impressed if you've managed to stay unspoiled so far!

If it helps, there are a few of my fics from the past few weeks that are spoilerfree - beneath the unsaid word (http://find-rightbrain.livejournal.com/138277.html), In a Strange Land (http://find-rightbrain.livejournal.com/138027.html) and Among the Dead and Dying (http://find-rightbrain.livejournal.com/137615.html) are all okay. So is Prismatic, the fic I wrote for [livejournal.com profile] writerinadrawer last week, but I haven't got that up on my fic journal yet.
