Sasha's Back!!! (and Poetry Woes)
Sep. 21st, 2004 02:50 pmYay! I just talked to my cousin (neighbor) and Sasha came home!!! Naturally, she was minus the collar I had just bought her, but who cares? She's back! I can't wait to get home so I can hug her and hug her. (Uh, I guess I should explain: There isn't a fence between our yards. And we are family as well as neighbors, so we just kinda have our pets in common.)
2 reviews so far today. Only a few left before I'm completely caught up. And tonight, 2500 words or bust! Hey, not a bad day's work when you consider that we lj-ers are now busy ruling the world. It's a tremendous responsibility, but hey, somebody's gotta do it.
Ok, opinion poll: Is it ok to write rhyming poetry in a high-fantasy novel? Or does it depend on the poetry? I wrote a poem before I started Unmagicked, and the plot is largely based on it. I'm finally approaching the chapter that contains said epic poetry, but rhyming stuff is sooooo last century...I'm not sure what to do. I'm ok with cutting it out, provided I could sum up the contents of the song adequately. Dunno. Stuck. Super-duper undecided. Eeeek! And if I hit my goal of 2500 words, I'll definitely get to it tonight. I might need a glass of wine.
