Lord Bitweaver\u2019s Journal, 30th of Colddark, 716 \u2014<\/p>\n
So, when I said I wanted to get Episode Nineteen written this weekend, I didn’t expect this.<\/p>\n
Thursday at Gender Rebels was fun. Lots of good Who and cosplay talk, with just a little bit of Moffat-hate thrown in to annoy me. No one there knew next to anything about Classic Who, which would make me feel old if I were the type to grouch about such things. Which I’m basically not. The desserts were not the best Roxy and I have ever had there, but whatevs.<\/p>\n
Friday evening I drove a moving truck for a friend. I honestly hate that, which tells you how much I like the friend. Besides, I couldn’t help with moving boxen, because of the hip replacement. This was the best I could offer for help, so I gave it. Still moved some lightweight stuff, and managed to wear myself out nicely.<\/p>\n
Saturday (today), Roxy generously handled some more moving work for our friend because I’d had about enough. I was feeling sick and mentally exhausted – I’ve had to take my brain meds twice today. I did a few home chores and tried to relax a bit, but I didn’t really relax properly until almost nine tonight, when I forced myself to open a Word document for Managlitch Nineteen, “Existence Failure”.<\/p>\n
Then, the magic happened. After a minor struggle to start, the word floodgates opened and I wrote thirteen pages in three hours. I don’t know how that compares to the Secret Masters of Science Fiction, but that’s a lot for me. And I was thrilled every second: I was “on”. Sure, it will still need editing, and the recording will be a bear because we’ll need three separate sessions; I don’t care. The Muse was on me tonight and that’s a high I often crave and rarely attain.<\/p>\n
So now, all I have to do is come down enough to get some sleep, because it’s back to external responsibilities tomorrow. And Monday, I want to start a new project in addition to the podcast. Void knows how I’ll manage that. Gonna try anyway.<\/p>\n
Thank you Muse. Hope the end result is worthy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
