I started on Sunday, courtesy of the April Fool site which did force me to start writing but is now just a nuisance/time waster/displacement activity... And I'm intrigued by the kitten thing which I will definitely investigate even if it turns out to be even more of a time waster. *g*
Anything that eats your words has to be teh eevil.
Anyway, just passed 6000. Would have got further but I stabbed my finger with a knife while prepping veg and the sticking plaster made me make so many typos it slowed me down. I've sent a summary to my beta who is away for Easter and hopes to come back to something to edit. The trouble is, the story has decided that it wants about 27k words to do itself justice rather than 15k and I can't dissuade it.
Plus - does anyone else have the sensation of a film running and rerunning in their head once they start writing and the only way to stop it is to get to the end? The plot etc. (even some of the dialogue) is all there - it just has to get written down.
