The Game's Afoot!
Okay, okay, it's an overused phrase, but I love Sherlock Holmes, and it's my blog, so I'll use it if I want to.
I've started the novel-writing portion of the next project, and wrote over 1,000 words in about two hours. The words actually bear some relationship with one another, which is amazing. The working title is "ampersand." My goal is around 3,000 words per writing day, figuring I've got 20 good writing days this month, allowing for the next gallery opening and Thanksgiving, and whatever other time-consuming obligations that will inevitably crop up.
The office cleanup was wrapped up yesterday, and it is so empowering to be able to get my hands on things I'm looking for, and to have a system of controlling paperwork and the various elements of business and household which is easily maintained.
Steve and I talked about our workloads, and we agreed that the second job he has been holding down may actually be holding him back from his main work, which is website development. My gut feeling is that he should focus on his main work, which is not only what he wants to do, but it will pay off in the long run and give us more time for each other in the short run. We've got this precious one moment in time where we can both be happy campers.
The weather is incredibly beautiful, a very late Indian Summer. I plan to take advantage of it to make an assemblage as part of The November Project. Thus, I'm off to the shed to look for various bits with potential....
