Virtual Writing Office Wednesday 14th October

[byslantedlight]

Finally the day has come - a Writing Wednesday that I haven't filled with other things! I have three things I need to do today - write, finish that bloody CoRtA form, and practice fiddle for tomorrow's lesson. which means that I have so far posted an October fic, downloaded a trial of Aeon Timeline, which I'm loving (and is at least connected to the specific writing that I'm trying to do and I've actually been doing Useful Things on it) and had a Yog Nog bath so that now I smell yummy... *g*

I'm also missing the pic that I spotted of MS in my flist earlier, from a show I didn't watch last night (hello catch-up tv), and since it sadly seems to have vanished, I shall post one of my own (though it'll have to have Bodie as well, cos boys together). So...
Okay - I know I ask for this every now and then, and then don't come through, but... does anyone out there want to give me a prompt for a wee (very wee) Prosfic - maybe three random words, since that's often worked for me in the past? Or a link to a poem or a picture or something? I want to slap all writers who say there's no such thing as writer's block (no, for you there's no such thing as writer's block - lucky you!)... I have lots of things I could be writing, but sometimes it's the freshness of something completely different that's the fresh air needed...

To do
- write! (not just plot - write!)
- download Aeon (to see if it helps with plotting *g*)- liking this!
- fiddle practice
- complete CoRtA application form and prepare for posting tomorrow - get it done now that the bc's arrived! - (at last!)
- post an October Pros fic
- more fiddle practice

I hope it wasn't the ms photo I put up then took down again of him in his flying suit because if it was then im sorry . Let me know and I will put it up again x

It was indeed that one! Did you change your mind about liking it, or...? Also I wouldn't have known the programme was on last night (and now on catch-up telly) if you hadn't posted, so thank you!

I am out at the moment but I will post it in your comment box when I get back and the programme was on bbc 4 at nine oclock last night x

please enjoy xx

Ah, thank you. *g* I have to admit though, that it was nice to see it when I scrolled up and down my flist - I bet other people thought so too! (I'm curious - why did you take it down after all?)

[ali15son.livejournal.com]

well the reason i took it down is that he isn't Lewis Collins plus nobody seemed interested .

I wondered if it was a not-LC thing, but I must admit that because I like both lads together, I like to see MS as well as LC in my flist...

I know what you mean about commenting, it's always a strange thing. I don't always comment - though I do always mean to comment when you post pics of both Bodie and Doyle. It's not cos I don't want to though, or because they're your posts or anything like that - it's purely a matter of time and focus. I keep lj open on a tab all day, and now and then when I need a break from work etc. I refresh and flick through the latest posts again. I don't usually let myself comment when I do that, cos I know it'll distract me from work, and I know I'm supposed to be focussing on that, not chatting. And because my work is on the same screen as lj, it's very easy for me to suddenly realise that half an hour's gone by... *g* So I try to wait until after work to comment, but then that's usually late at night and then I end up passing things by in a blur of too-much-computer-screen now. It's very different from the way I used to - and want to - lj, when I had what felt like all the time and the headspace in the world to be online.

Even though I know it's not usually down to me whether people comment or not (well, I know that with some people it is), it still feels odd to post into what feels like a vacuum. These days people need a post to be around for a lot longer to comment, too, I've noticed.

Anyway - I'm not supposed to be on lj now either, I'm supposed to be dashing out the door for a fiddle lesson beforeI start work today! But honestly - if people don't comment on your posts quickly, it doesn't mean they're not appreciated, it's about them, not that people don't like/want your posts!

Such nice togethery pics!!

I have a prompt, hope I'm not too late?

One of them tackling a rider. In full speed or so...

What a glorious thing, a day for writing!!

Hope you get the rest done, too.

Well that'll teach me to ask, won't it..! Right then... *g*

My writing got stalled while I finally got my certificate application properly sorted - but I'm so pleased that's done at least! All I have to do now is post it, and try not to worry. There's no real reason to worry, so I don't know why I fret, but...

Right - writing! And riding, and tackling... hmmn...

Hope your writing day is going beautifully! I am back under pressure with a deadline. Court this morning went well - our judge really likes J, thankfully.

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Well, I finally got my certificate application completed and with all required docs and a copy scanned - which almost took longer than everything else! Now let's see if I can finally do some writing too... *g*

Hurrah for court going well, and friendly-sounding judges too - crossed fingers and held thumbs that your world continues to go as beautifully as it really should!

Love that pic of MS in flightsuit, from the Dambusters special, isn't it?

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

I reckon it is - and I've not watched it yet! So much for crashing in front of catch-up telly tonight - there may have been writing instead... yeay! *g*

[jessebee.livejournal.com]

Oh you must watch that, very interesting! Of course, I love planes and war history both, so there you go *g*. And YAY writing!
