Scribblings of a Lost Mind

Writing Project #9: Coffee with Marie
So, it's been a trying week; sleep has not exactly come easily to me and I keep waking up way too early in the morning for no apparent reason at all. That's made it hard to focus on what I need to do around the house in addition to actually writing. I've started four different little writings but none of them got beyond a paragraph before I lost my muse. Of course, this got a little spurred after I took some time to relax with some DVD boxed sets, a movie or two, and in general relax my mind.

(Tangentially, I'd recommend "Firefly" to people who like decent character writing. Decent, not stellar, but that's better than most shows which are on television of late. It's a lot better than "Heroes" lately . . .)

In any case, this goes back to some of the other writings, meshing together in ways. I think underneath all this I've worked out the setting and how things connect.
