enamouredDear IRS: My tax return check should be here by now. Why is it not here? I really need that money right about now. Send it posthaste, if you would be so kind.
I've mentioned in passing a few times that I've been attempting to write the first draft of what I call The Boarding School Epic of Doom in jest, and here's what I have on that so far: I have decided to completely restart it. I'm not scraping the nearly 90 pages that I wrote for it starting sometime early last year; I'm just trying to rework some of it because the more I think about the start for the first copy, the less satisfied I am with it. I keep trying to write it and not obsess too much about it being perfect because it's a draft, so there's that. Also, the fact is that I've had this story knocking around in my head since 2006, and it takes place over a year and a half from 2004 to May/June of 2005 and I keep wondering if it will ever be potentially worth seeing life beyond my desktop/my friends' occasional peeks at it.
And to get away from writerly angst: a puppy and a teddy bear.
