Creative days

I'm having great fun with picowrimo, and I'm very grateful that altariel encouraged me to join. The people there are funny and inspiring, and I made considerable headway with my "Toshiko in 12th century Japan" story.

Also, I got a wonderful postcard from ithilwen, from the Grand Canyon. It's so very nice of her!

All in all: autumn break is a noble thing.

You're finished? Wow! That is so awesome! *grabs your hands and twirls around with you*

Thanks. :)

The freshly beta-ed 3rd chapter is up to otherworlds_lib, whenever you have a week to dig yourself through a 12th century Japanese naval battle. ;)

Cool! I'm looking forward to reading it already. I think I'll get around to reading (and reviewing) this weekend, but I know I'm too tired now to process anything as complex as a 12th century naval battle. I'll get hopelessly confused *laughs*

You think *reading* it would be hard? Imagine what it was like *writing* it?

And now I'll have to hunt down some good templates for a vicious swordfight between two Immortals... *sighs*

*hugs* I can imagine, though imagining it makesme shudder.

That's why writing historical fiction is a place I don't even dare to go.

Yeah, but it's also great fun, trying to squeeze your story into the given frame and use all the cool toys that are already there. ;)

*sighs* Yeah, that's why historical keeps tempting me... It's a good thing I have so many other projects I can distract myself until the urge passes.
