Yay! I got the original story chapter I was rewriting all done this morning. *happy dance*

This doesn't sound like an accomplishment until you realize how long I've been working on that one annoying bastard because my uber-perfectionist would not stop kicking in. Also, I'm changing the entire novel from alternating between third- and first-person POV to just first-person POV, which means I'm scrapping large chunks of the book and rewriting new ones.

But, hey, a whole chapter. That's good, right? Encourage me, damn you. I feel like a lazy jackass.

In other news, I may not get to go see PoA this weekend if I don't get my ass over to the movie theater after work and buy tickets tonight. Oh, this should be loads of fun, especially considering I'm going to have to play Metro hopscotch at about ten at night to get over there. Lovely. *end sarcasm*

A chapter is quite an accomplishment. I've got a book that I've been working on for a few years that is still in the notes/outline stage because I keep changing parts of it and adding things. There's nothing wrong with being a perfectionist. Though it is frustrating when I look at other people I know who just seem to be able to exhale pages and pages of stuff. Oh well.

PoA?

I read that as Pirates of Azkaban and now I'm thinking of UberGay!Potter in eyeshadow.

Oooh, a chapter! Nice one. And damn damn damn those perspective changes. I wrote half my book in first person, decided it was crap (it was), got to about the same point in third person, and now I miss some of the first person bits but it still wouldn't all work and aaaaaargh.
Ahem. Sorry about that... and go you with the writing things!

Is this the same novel you sent out the first few chapters of a while back?

It's been pointed out to me that just by getting any actual writing done you're doing better than most of the population. So, yay!

Now go write more.
