raefinlayReviews: 4 yesterday, 1 today. Yay! Almost caught up.
Bugs: Praying mantis on my water faucet. I hadn't realized they could fly...
About to introduce parallel plotline #3, and I'm thinking...am I nuts??? How am I going to keep track of that much stuff? Feeling a bit short on brain cells, humbled by my own limits.
Self-Doubt Monster: You're not smart enough or a good enough writer to tackle this.
Wannabe Writer: But you should at least try! Think about what you'll learn in the process.
SDM: You haven't even published a short story; what makes you think you can tackle an epic novel?
WW: It doesn't matter. I think therefore I write. I breathe therefore I write. I must try, try, try!
*thwaps SDM*
*flicks SDM on forehead*
*stomps on SDM*
*remembers: must resurrect SDM at later date as aid for writing character conflict*
Writing. *sighs*
