You *tease,* you! I want it, I want that Chasing Rainbows sequel NOW. You can't tell me things like that about it and make me WAIT. It's not NICE.

So part of your New Year's ressies must be to be an inspiration to slumps like me, hmmm? Disciplined writing, novels, sequels, plots. I hang my head in shame... I'm lucky to just make the damn coffee most days, much less tea (green, sort-of; which I would rather have, as a matter of philosophy, than coffee), although you'd think making tea wouldn't be that much bigger a challenge than making coffee, would you? Ah, well. I'm becoming resigned to the fact that the ability to make *anything* about ten times more difficult than it needs to be is my newest direction in life. ::rolls eyes at self::

Still, you give me hope. I get more Rainbows.

Hahahahahahaaa! Oh man... If you only knew... ::slopes off giggling to self::

you'd think making tea wouldn't be that much bigger a challenge than making coffee, would you?
Now, you see - I find making coffee, which I love, much more of an effort, than making tea, which I mostly drink (I love green, too). Coffee involves all that messing around with equipment and terrifying water under pressure and stuff. With tea, you pour boiling water on some leaves - what could be simpler?

Still, you give me hope. I get more Rainbows.
Hmmm. Well, I hope you're not counting the days because it'll be a while yet. I still only have the basic idea for the plot; nothing fleshy, nothing pert or rounded about it so far. And I still have another Moonridge tale, that's about 1/3 written, to pick up and finish before I even start. )o:

How about you? Anything new on the cards? Hmmm? Hmmm? (Sorry. I'm starting to sound like the First Doctor - who, you'll notice - no one EVER slashes! (o:

Yeah, well, that making tea is HARD is just one of my (many) kinks. Which is stupid, because I basically make mediocre-to-ucky coffee, anyway. Water I do good, though. I can MAKE water. ;-)

Okay, just realized how *bad* that sounded. I'm not quite ashamed enough of myself to kick the fingers over to the delete key, but sheesh.

Nah, not REALLY trying to pressure you about Rainbows. I CAN be (occasionally) patient. And since I don't have a flippin' clue about what -- if anything -- I'm actually gonna write next (playing with a couple of things, but they're mostly of the sort that I don't have the chops to write yet, and may NEVER have the chops to write), I can hardly sit here and try to guilt you out.

::blushes and admits to possibly highly embarrassing ignorance:: First Doctor? Don't know that reference...

And hey, good luck with your Transition -- may your Internet Provider be all that you hope for, and more; and may you not have to be offline for too long (I don't know about you, but I had withdrawal symptoms all day long Saturday from making myself stay away),

Heh heh. I can do water too. I'm REAL good at water.

but they're mostly of the sort that I don't have the chops to write yet, and may NEVER have the chops to write)...

Hmmm. ::rubs chin in a ponderous fashion:: that sounds very intriguing...

::blushes and admits to possibly highly embarrassing ignorance:: First Doctor? Don't know that reference...

Oh, nothing to be embarassed about; it's Doctor Who, is all. I thought everyone was watching it now that it's become so trendy (o: The First Doc (or One) was an old man with long, white hair who looked like he'd really be much happier in his slippers, feet up, listening to a bakelite radio tuned to the Home Service (I hope that's not all hopelessly obscure???) Basically, an old man who looks like he probably smells a bit funny and is decidedly NON SLASHABLE (IMO). Unlike some of his later incarnations... ::goes to happy place::
