Turbo Writing & Venomous Spiders
Oct. 27th, 2004 11:24 amWords last nite: 1,000. Dude. That used to be my weekly goal. I love being an eight-to-fiver. It's a short story, direct from the Bible, but with...liberties. *dodges lightning bolts* It's in 2nd person. Don't know why, but I started it at 3 am and I guess, well, 2nd person happens. (hmmm...bumper sticker potential?)
BUGS: My sister found a black widow IN MY BED. She turned away to get a shoe, turned back, and it was GONE. We tore the bed apart, raided my whole bedroom, did loads and loads of superfluous laundry... No spider anywhere. I slept not at all.
That makes a total of 2 black widows found in the house, and about 20 outside. This is not ok. My niece is only three years old and one of these ladies could kill her. If my landlord doesn't agree to a thorough extermination, we're moving out.
And: HUGE congrats to
jmeadows for finishing! How does it feel to type THE END legitimately?

And... you know what? I didn't type THE END. Maybe I'll wait to do that for my final draft. :D

Sight reading has always been hard for me. I have an ear, though. If you hum it or play it or whatever, I can usually play it.
Unless you're out of tune, and then I'm lost. :D
