Restarted fic

Had some time to kill while away from the computer today and started rewriting yesterday's abortive story. There is definitely something different and satisfying (for me anyway) about putting a pen to paper instead of fighting with the stupid keyboard. It's hard to track the evolving thought process involved in a piece of writing when you write directly to the computer.  [Very glad Mr Tolkein didn't write directly to a file or I would have missed out on too many hours of enjoyable reading curled up with Histories of Middle Earth, etc... ] It just seems to feel a little richer and more real after so long away from writing.  I will definitely try to remember to try it if I start getting writer's block; there is just something about the idea of curling up on the couch in front of a fireplace on a cold day with a cat cuddled next to you with a notebook and special pen, a pile of pillows and a quilt, a hot buttered rum.... eeek it's June and 90 some odd degrees outside and I have a basset hound and I'm snuggling in front of the fire with a kitten??? lol Oh well, it's a nice relaxing scene to imagine writing in. I guess I should start typing what I wrote out since surely no one else could make sense of my perverted chicken scratchings and scrawled shorthand.  It looks like maybe I am capable of keeping to an almost daily posting schedule after all. Maybe this and the the fanfic writing will help work out some things I need to get out of my system after all. Guess I need to finish the fic so I can get some readers now ;)
