HOUR 19 USURPATION and my first post on Dreamwidth. I have been in my time of dyeing - what's going on where you're at?

Huzzah, usurpation! :D I am going to take a nap, because I got four hours of sleep last night.

[idlewild]

That sounds like a very good idea!

Hurrah, Idlewild is here! Break out the good booze! (Or hide it if that's your bent, but it is not my bent.)

I assembled my box (it is a Very Large Box, large enough to provide short-term proverbial assistance to several friends ifyouknowwhatImean). I have also re-marked a hem on a dress that has been a proverbial SOB about letting me get an even hemline.

Now I am about to put a couple of hand-sewing projects into the car and scoot away out of the house for a few hours that I hope will not be entirely unproductive.

[idlewild]

I broke out the booze last night and made Mai Tais which might be enough booze for now. Maybe. Congratulations on your very large box. Here's to productivity in the hours ahead.

Lunch is where I'm at right now,

[idlewild]

Time is an illusion, lunch time doubly so. But I hope it is a tasty illusion.

Congrats on your first post!

I am awake, at least. I should food.

[idlewild]

For sure! Food comes before creativity because otherwise you just faint in the middle of a paragraph and what fun is that?

I'm new here... finally getting a tiny bit of writing done. 111 words so far today. Hoping for at least 500.

[idlewild]

Welcome! Good job on getting a start on your target. Not too far to go if you keep plugging away at it!

[marginaliana]

Edited and posted a chapter of my WIP, hooray!

Also I did six loads of laundry and want to murder all my neighbors with the fiery passion of a thousand burning suns, but, you know.

ETA: are you named for the band? I love them!

[idlewild]

Woo! Good accomplishments both on the writing/posting front and the epic laundry front.

I'm not named for the band, I'm named for Idlewild Airport, which was renamed to the more prosaic JFK Airport in the '60s. The band chose their name only slightly before I started using this online, and ever since I've been mildly amused.

I finished grocery shopping and ate a snack!

I'm switching gears since I got all of my pop culture writing done earlier. Now it's time for original fiction writing. :x

[idlewild]

Oh that sounds good! Are you working on a novel, or short stories, or something else?

[inkstone]

I'm starting a novel. :D

[idlewild]

Ooh, fantastic! Best of luck getting a good run at it today.

[eve11]

I've written 473 words! They are mostly the disjointed skeleton of a section and I've no idea what order they need to go in! But they are words. (It's also TARDIS POV so not knowing what order they need to go in is probably the writer's equivalent of method acting anyway.)

[idlewild]

Haha, yes, I imagine that time does not mean anything much to the TARDIS. Good word count! Nice work.
