The voices in my head are getting louder


When your characters start haunting you in your dreams, it's either a sign that you need to write more or a sign that you need to look into that group therapy option. The two star players in my Scarlett books are appearing more and more frequently in my dreams (alongside Andrew Sachs, curiously enough), and since I don't think group therapy covers this sort of problem, more writing must be the answer.

Except I'm really no nearer finishing DftB than I was at the start of November, and I really want to finish that before I start rewriting Fire and Moonlight Catching Fire. Curse this damnable day job! Curse it, I say!

In other news, I've decided to be more cultural next year. I'm going to see Swan Lake and Aida and I don't care who I have to drag along with me. I think it's too late to be cultural in 2008, but in 2009 I plan to cram as much Arte as I can into my life. And damn the consequences!

My boys are such pains in the skull. Denver, Jack and Toya are pestering me to write, write and write more. Now if they'd just play nice and take turns that would help.

Yeah, but they can't learn to share. Everyone's so certain their tale of heroism and demonology is the most important...

Ballet is awesome. I went to see Sleeping Beauty with my grandma years ago and I'll never forget it.

I have yet to experience the opera though. One day *shakes fist*

One day in February, maybe?
