I have about one hundred words. *panics*
Instead of writing Pros, I'm having to rewrite Midsummer Night's Dream into 1969 lingo for my assessment. So that's, uh, fun...?

But, on the bright side, I'm getting to see The Best Man today (so excited) and there's a pretty good chance I will be able to use The Professionals in my final exam!!! So at least I can use that excuse to watch it!

Hope everyone else's stories are going better... :-)

Optimism! *screams into pillow* :-D

A hundred words is waaaaaaay better than *no* words, so Yay!!! :-)

Having to translate A Midsummer Night's Dream into 1969 lingo sounds like three days of your life you're never going to see again... so let's gloss over that bit and go straight on to the using of Pros in your final exam, which would be epic! Again I say Yay!!!

Thanks for the encouragement. :-)
I wish it was only three days: we've got to perform this thing too and for some weird reason, I've also got to play Puck. Probably some plotbunny in there somewhere...!

And yes, it would be amazing if I could study Pros: the protayal of hyper masculinity I think would work... :-)

I think the lads would approve! :-)

Dr Ross would, at any rate...

If you take out the bard, this was where I was at last year (more or less) - so there's hope :0)

Passed the 13,500 word mark - it's unfolding slowly - in the right direction.

It will be long though, the ending won't work - at least, I can't see how I can expect people to go with it - if I don't get there slowly.

How's 6 pages?

I got 6 pages proofed and am reasonably okay with them.
A long way to go though.

6 proof-read pages is a fabulous start, so keep up the good work!!!

Still a long way off though, not even at the first staging post yet...

Hey cool manip. I like it.

Ooooh, nice pic! :-)

Well, I've had intentions, at least... not so much BB-centric writing, sadly. :-(

..though the past few days I've been listening to Bob Marley. He would have been in London around the right time, so - maybe a mention of Marley in a Pros fic? Doyle's adventurous enough to try a concert... though he had left the Met a little too early to have been the policeman who busted Bob for pot possession.

Hmmmm~ :speculates:

Don't make me send the stoats round... *vbg*

Marley, Bob - Jacob Marley...mind wanders off down rabbit hole...

Love that picture. I've done more writing in the last two days than in a month, I think. Bodie and Doyle are talking--and beginning to investigate. They're currently on a road trip of sorts.

I forced myself to think about them often by making my password at work Bodiedoyle! lol

Huzzah!!! for all the writing!!! That's VERY good indeed!

[identity profile] fiorenza-a.livejournal.com 2018-03-24 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)

Are you supposed to post that?

But great thinking :0)

[identity profile] merentha13.livejournal.com 2018-03-23 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
W-E-L-L, I have about 1500 words, but I'm not sure how they'll all fit together yet. Wish I could write in a straight line.

I've reached the upper level of vacation hours I'm allowed before I start losing them, so I took tomorrow off from work to write. but I bought some new picture manipulating software and...

Decisions, decisions...

[identity profile] loxleyprince.livejournal.com 2018-03-23 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
Picture manipulating software! Ooooooooh! That can be very distracting, but still, YAY!!! What did you get? *iz interested*
Also, 1500 words is an excellent start. 1500 words in sentences would be even better! :-)

[identity profile] merentha13.livejournal.com 2018-03-23 06:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I have a free trial on Photoshop Elements 2018. My full version of PS is old, so I thought I'd check out the new features here. It's like learning it all over again - don't know if I have the patience!

Some of those 1500 words do form sentences...

[identity profile] loxleyprince.livejournal.com 2018-03-23 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, you do! You do! You'll have loads of fun!!!

Sentences! Excellent! :-)

[identity profile] fiorenza-a.livejournal.com 2018-03-24 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Looking forward to sentences :0)

I lost my freebie vid license when my old computer died - looking at freebie alternatives.

Not being a manip Queen, I use paint.net - but I lost track of all my plugins when my old pc died...

Basically my old pc died and now my life is in tatters!
