It's been a pretty good day.

Bank, check
Comic book store, check. By the way, comic book store? IS KILLING ME DEAD. I am 45 years old. I should not be making a weekly visit to the frelling comic book store. And yet, here I am. Today's haul included the Ultimate Iron Man 2 trade, Farscape, Ender's Game 5, and I ordered the Sherlock Holmes and Muppet comics from the other store.
Library, check.
Groceries, check.

And, DUDE. I can has Ultimate Iron Man 2 trade by Orson Scott Card. And it is tasty, tasty crack and I need more like burning. NAOW, plz. Gawd, I love the Ultimate Universe. I got UIM1 from the library and I've been mainlining Young!Tony all day. Yesssssssssssss.

In other comics news, I really should dig through this pile of them I've got next to the couch and get them organized again. Out-of-control stack o' comics is out-of-control.

In writing news, I didn't work on the query letter, but I did get my requisite 250 words in, plus a little scratch that, a lot. I don't have what I started the day with next to me, but I think I cranked out another thousand words today when all was said and done. I thought I should explore how the moon affects Ben when he's got the wolfsbane around him and is incapable of Changing.

Badly, it turns out.

Duh.

Because this is me and I'm a horrible person. I may have mentioned this before.

Somewhere in there, I decided that Ben should have a name for his wolf. Because this is me and I'm weird. This, too, is something I may have mentioned before.

Poor guy, he can't sleep--it's broken up by vivid nightmares, and he's getting to the point where he's almost afraid to close his eyes, no matter how exhausted he is, and he's plenty exhausted right now. Why, yes, I'm fond of snapping him right in half, why do you ask? And the villainess is a conflicted mess, because she's actually discovered that she likes this one and he's become more than "food" to her. *evil laughter*

Good lord, I don't think I can do this until December. The words are rolling off the keyboard this week, but who knows how long I'll be able to sustain it? I don't even have Plot yet...

Do you have a particular project you're working on?

That would make it hard to sleep unless he was druged up, and I doubt he would appreciate that at all.

As for project, no I don't have anything going on, though I do have the werewolf book idea. Mostly I just try to write 5k every week just because.
