Round 6 Hour 17

How are you doing? Finally waking up? Or is it the middle of the night where you are?

I won't be around much this hour because I need to run into the nearest town for something. I should be back soon.

Hi, I am not around much this weekend, but hope it's all right if I join in? (I can do a spot of cheerleading if nothing else).

I have a few spare hours and think I really should get on with at least one of my WIPs. But which one? So I vascillate hopelessly... I've decided to come on here and say I'm going to try and finish off Part One of something called The Rime on the Spray. (It's somebody's b'day tomorrow, and I think it might be a fic they'd like, so...)

Hopefully saying that will make me write it. :-D

I love that title all by itself - very poetic!

[thisbluespirit]

:lol: It is - it's from Lyonesse, by Thomas Hardy!

Of course it's alright if you join in! We'd rather have you for a few hours than not at all. And more cheerleaders are always nice. :)

Thank you!

Although, sad to say, I have no pom poms. ;-)

I spent the last few little whiles reading Prim's new fluff piece she linkied me... very lovely.

Before that, I got another couple of questions answered ("What do you like best about the college?" and "Why?"), and made a start on "Tell us how our academic program works so we're sure you understand it." Which is sort of awkward to write in this context because, heck, they know how it works!

I think I'll have to come back to that one later, but for now, I'm moving on to "Tell us how you feel about classroom discussions." Which are, of course, something I love - much better than being lectured by random professors one may or may not agree with. Now to say that politely! ;-)

Ah yes, BSing polite ways of putting things. I remember that about school.

I mean, um, good work! I'm sure your essay will go smoothly.

I've edited some previous chapters leading up to my trouble spot instead of tackling the intended knot in a pathetic bit of writer's procrastination - will now attempt to stare it down in between obligatory housework.

Is it One, Two or Three? *looks hopeful*

:)

That is all.

It's the fourth section for "Custom Vehicle", if it trips me up too much, I'll switch horses midstream and start chewing on Two's outline. :-)

I'm doing rather well... I've got at least partial answers to the first eight sub-questions, and I'm on to officially numbered Question 3A. That would be, in their phrasing, "Describe your reading habits and your experience with books" - or in mine, "Do you like to read?"

This is going to be a fun one, I hope. Everyone I know IRL who hears about this question cracks up laughing and asks how many pages I'm allowed to use in answering it. Fitting it into anything resembling a sane space, that's going to be the hard part!
