Round 18, Hour 31

[lothithil.livejournal.com]

Here we are at hour 31 of the Fic_Rush. I have two cats, asleep, at my right hand, a sweating glass of pomegranate soda on my left, and hours to go before I sleep.

And another penguin melting on my desk.

Rico:
Urg! Ack! Hork!
... mumble...

Translation:
Hope the writing is going well. The night (at my current position on the globe) is good for writing... no interruptions. There's a lightning storm brewing over the central plains. I can smell ozone.

... or that could be the dynamite I ate earlier...

It is hard to write without feedback. It is also difficult to not come to rely on it. I try to remind myself that there are many more readers Out There who don't comment than ones that do.

'Writing for personal pleasure is more important than public approval' is another of my mantras. Writing for cookies is far more rewarding than writing for peer reviews.

*snaps fingers* Hey, waiter! More cookies, table two!
