Writing Hell Month: Day 14

[ellenscult]

So I'm up.

It's one of life's cruel ironies that CFS also includes bouts of insomnia. I had a couple of hours' sleep last night, then woke up. My feet were hot. I needed a drink. You know, the usual stuff which makes for wriggly, restless, long, awake nights. And I dozed, and ravenlas snored, and I came downstairs and got a bit more sleep on the sofa.

Bah.

Humbug.

*not impressed*

I'm going back to my slushpiles until I've woken up enough to start writing. I have tea.

Oh, on the plus side? I worked out how to remodel the downstairs. I tells ya, my brain on sleep deprivation? Is awesome.

Bah.

Weight: Don't know, don't care. Exercise: !!! Alcohol: Not at this time in the morning, thanks. Tea: intravenous.

My frist drafts used to be like that, but my academic first drafts currently suck bottom. It's somewhere around the third to the fifth draft where they start to get good :P (or possibly :S, considering how much work I have left to do in the next fortnight!)

Thanks for the well wishes, I think I'll need them!

I'm looking forward to emerging from my hermitage when all this is over, and seeing people again! :)

My academic first drafts were never that good. Sometimes I should have taken more time to rewrite them... *grin* Best of luck, anyway. It really does seem to be coming together now, from your posts. *fingers crossed*
