Writers block: I no longer have it.

The writing bug bit me hard today. It's nice to be back in that mode, since I haven't really been there for a while. I'd get short spurts of creativity, but I feel more back in a routine with it now, which is nice. I'm picking away at parts of the next couple of chapters all at once, and it's coming together pretty well.

... and I may or may not have just written a conversation between Johnny and Ripp where they compare penis stats. *snicker* What is WRONG with me?

Ehh... I'm not ashamed. It's funny. (And it's not like they haven't gone there already.) But yeah, I actually deliberated over what they would be, in specific measurements. Character development just went to the next level.

Writers block dislodgement has to be the best feeling ever. Unless its in the middle of the night & your muse wont let you go back to sleep & then you hate it while you wait for the caffeine to kick in... heh...

I thought my character bios were indepth. You win. XD

I know! It's like taking ex-lax for the brain. And hey - if you wake up with a great idea, getting it out is the right thing to do, as inconvenient as that may seem. You did the right thing.

W00t! After you spend so much time with a character, the level of detail can become frightening... but I love thinking all this stuff through, especially if it will be useful for a scene. This will be worth it for the laugh.
