Midweek Geekiness: Hobbits, and Heroes, and At-Home-Sick Oh My!

How Am I Feeling

Today I took out my laptop after taking a break from it. I have my smart phone, but most of the time I slept and read as I wrote earlier. I also planned for NaNoWriMo, something I would have done over breaks and lunch at work. The word ‘idle’ does not suit me very well. Even as a homebody, I would read something, write something, or watch something. Doing nothing is not something I do very well. Even if I sit still my mind still whirls like a scape papers in the wind.

Most of the time I write in my journal to break myself of a few writing habits I developed over the last few years. I try not to use too many adjectives, I dangle my participles , and I just break up my sentences without resorting to a comma. The big habit to break involves turning down the voice of the inner critic. That one is still in progress.
