This Week's Check In

[przed.livejournal.com]

It's time for this week's writer check in.

Inspired by merentha13's suggestion of an online slang dictionary, I thought I'd include a few other Brit checking resources:

List of British word not widely used in the U.S. (Pretty much as advertised, a big long list of Brit-specific words)

U.K. vs. U.S. spelling (For when you're debating using "ise" or "ize")

Dictionary of English Slang (This one's my personal fave)

And inspired by my own incipient panic, how about a poll on how we're all doing:
[Poll #1737374]

Bodie and Doyle are very curious to hear how you're all doing...

I really am hoping the writer's block is only temporary. It's been a slightly ridiculous amount of time since I've added any new words to the story. I am hoping using Scrivener will knock the whole thing loose in my head.

That, or I pull out the scotch.

Scotch! I'm comin' over to your house.

I have several lovely bottles of scotch. For real! (It's just about the only thing I can drink these days.)

As for your status, it can't be any worse than mine. ;-)

Scotch... yeah.

I'm sure it's only temporary. ♥

I'm hoping it's only temporary. The writer's block, not the scotch. *g*

The scotch will help. Definitely. *nods*

[przed.livejournal.com]

One hopes. *g*

Why not give your characters the scotch? See if that helps?!!

[przed.livejournal.com]

It might just. We shall see. *g*
