Destin Heureux
I've finally tipped away from the stalled middle ground I achieved in "Equinox," with nearly one thousand more words written since the weekend began. It took a lot of bourbon, to be sure. There's a lot I'm not satisfied with (especially the really limited nature of show-n-tell that goes on), but I think this story, more than any other I've written, will have a truly rough draft. I've always found it a good method to cringe at not sweating the details, but continuing anyway. When I start editing, I will take care of the problems.
Lisa and I came up with a new game to play: Sketch Wars. We both need to practice our abilities far more often that we often do, so I decided that every day, we would challenge each other with some kind of short work, a sketch. I'll tell her to draw something I think of, and she'll tell me to write in the manner of her choice. The first challenge is tonight. I'll post results and observations here if they prove to be fun and interesting.
