Amazing how much you miss when you take a couple of weeks off, most especially the birthday of the estimable, adorable, incomparable and wholly remarkable t_verano

I hope your day was as wonderful as yourself, darling.

***   ***   ***

And yesterday, t'was the birthday of the delicious and delightful karieflybabe.

Sorry I'm late with the greetings, honey; I hope your day was coated in sparkling, sugar-sprinkles and flavoured with the purest joy.

Did I miss anyone else...? Abject apologies if so and I hope you had a spankingly brilliant day.
Mood:: 'cheerful' cheerful
Music:: Jonathan Ross, bickering with Andy.

::hugs you squishily, blushing:: Thank you for the delightful wishes! The 'wonderful day' part was definitely true, which was in huge part thanks to here.

And your timing is actually impeccable; you posted this on the day I actually did some more RL birthday stuff with my mom and sister; so -- see? -- psychic, you!

And I'm so glad you're reunited with your computer (and us). But how the sweet hell does a person manage to write fiction (or, shoot, *anything*) longhand?

????

? ? ?
 
Well, people did, for hundreds of years! I found it inspired lots of ideas for one of the novels I'm working on. It didn;t work at all for fic, though - couldn;t think of a blesed thing (though that's been the case for a while now, sadly so possibly unconnected to the use of pressed, bleached wood-pulp and a pen).

I'm glad you had - and are still having - a wonderful time. If anyone deserves it, tis you.

 
Well, people did, for hundreds of years!

Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I still don't get *how*. :-) I *need* my copy-and-paste so I can make twenty-seven versions of a paragraph till I get one I can live with -- doing that longhand is just *not* on.

And maybe it's just novel time right now for you, and not fic time; that's cool. (That you're novel-writing is *very* cool! Not that I don't want more fic!!! but hey, that will come back when it's ready. Maybe your muse just doesn't want to multi-task right now; just wants to reserve its energy for novels. ::squishes you again::
