Look, it's green! And...I'm more than halfway through! :)

Thank you, Wendy, for the encouragement :)

Things are looking good. I've been typing my fingers off so that I can take Thursday-Sunday off, essentially. I may get some time tomorrow night, but Friday-Sunday, I am going on VACATION with the dear doting man who's put up with me thus far.

And my characters are not invited!

So I am set so that I'll be "on track" when I get back.

I've been writing outside of my apartment for the past two days, and that's helped a lot. I think I was just getting a little claustrophobic at my messy dining room table. Yesterday was a loud and cheerful coffeeshop. Today, it's the third floor of the quietest library I've ever been to. It's been working, and I've been happier.

In strange observations, I've found myself completely embarassed to write a kissing scene "in public". I am always afraid that suddenly someone will walk by and see the word "tongue".

So I think it'll be a while before my characters start making out again. Maybe that's a good thing. Or maybe I should go to the humanities library on campus here. After all, I'm pretty sure no one is there...and I can find a corner where I can write the words "hot and passionate" all I want without embarassment.

either that or I'll just write *insert passionate kiss...7/10 in hotness* or some nonsense like that. =P

Look at you with your shiny green 50% bar! Go you! Out of town. On holiday. Take a dear doting man with you. And do some research on passionate kisses rated 7/10 in hotness.

Have a lovely weekend - I'm off for four days, too (squee!!!) - and I'll see you back here on Monday!
