I'll never take lozenges again!

[apocalypsos]

So I went into work with my sad excuse for a scratchy barely-there voice and ended up getting put on the data-entry sort of stuff I'm going to be doing starting next week. Aaaaand then about halfway through the day they brought out a bunch of people in training to listen to us take calls, except for me, YAY! I really don't want to be listened to, you guys. I'm terrible on the phone, or at least I already feel like I am as it is without people looking over my shoulder and silently critiquing me.

But this weekend I'm going to write!

Er, when I'm not at the bar.

(I'll only be at the bar Saturday night, honest!)

SO. I've got three things to worry about:

1. Timelines for Heroine Addiction
2. Edited chapters for The Grand Prize Winner
3. Writing something.

*sigh* This would be a lot easier with my netbook. ARGH, stupid adapter. I ordered another one and it's in the mail and why does the MAILMAN have my adapter and why is he not GIVING it to me? Hmph.

It depends on the story, really. Once I get a concept in mind, I sit down and make a list of about thirty or so scenes I know have to happen in the story and then string them together in order in a loose outline. Usually by the time I get the loose outline done I feel confident enough to start the first chapter.

I try not to worry too much about the details before I start. Knowing me, if I worried too much about not knowing precisely where I'm going every step of the way, I'd never get anything finished, perfectionist that I can be at times. ;)

Ah. I ask because it's taking me forever to plot this one. I think I'm stuck on the world-building. But I continue to plot away.:)
