As I suspected would happen, work on the WIP pretty much ground to a halt the moment November ended. Averaging a thousand words a day is exhausting and I needed to recuperate. I did this by writing, on the first, a 1154-word background for an Exalted character who [livejournal.com profile] lstone seems to have nicknamed Contemplating Navels.¹ Okay, not very relaxing. I also wrote a cinquenta on the third, and yesterday got back to Life with 487 words. The second of December ... I have no memory of the second. I'm not entirely convinced I haven't just got my watch set wrong, though the date of this post to [livejournal.com profile] ravingtheosophy suggests I was present for that day.

I'm sort of proud of the cinquenta, which is completely inappropriate because I can only take credit for about 10% of it — not much even on a piece that's more than fifty words log. The rest of it is from something rather compelling Zeborah said on rasfc a year and a half ago in response to someone else's response to me being a smartass. Posting it here is in violation of copyright and, worse, in poor taste, but I'm not sure what else to do with it. I may have to start reading rasfc again. Anyway:

I've had this image in my mind for years, off and on: what it must be like, travelling out towards the edge of the universe. Past stars, past galaxies, past everything. And then there's only one more star ahead of you; and then you pass that, too.

There it went.


¹ I'm very excited about this game, and extremely dubious about the guy who's running it. I don't trust anyone who looks at a character with what he initially takes for a ten-die attack pool when dual-wielding swords and says 'I'm not sure this character is buff enough'. Not my character; [livejournal.com profile] annwyd's. My character actually does have a ten-die attack pool, when using certain kinds of weapons, because I wasted points on things like Bureaucracy and Occult. More to the point, I'm getting tired of needing a gun, a crowbar and three burly 'acquaintences' to get answers out of him.

I've dropped Zeborah a line with this URL, so, thingy, y'know?

Dearest Sir.

you do not know me but out of curiosity i typed in the name to see if anyone would have it and of course low and behold there was someone. i see you like role playing games. that must be nice for you. now here is a story for you.....

she walked up to me small plastic container in hand. on the side read "bug island adventure". i noticed the plastic palm tree inside and figured that would be the most adventurous idea toy makers could come up with. palm trees. she crouched down and picked up a fast crawling fearful rolly polly from the sidewalk. she stuck it inside the bug island adventure carrying case. it landed with a plop onto a large collection of rolly polly carcases. all dead. all having gone through the same scenario that her new little friend just experienced. "i feed them dirt and leaves" she said. " theyre all named Tina". i saw Tina 67 bramble about with fear in her eyes only to finally still herself and wait for the inevitable doom.

Yours truly.....Lewin Periphany

Odd. My work in progress is the final edit of my novel Relic of the Dawn - which will be the second Exalted novel from White Wolf. I do not have any navel-contemplating characters....but then, how much room in the universe is there for another?

Plenty, I'd expect. The name actually has more to do with the style of her real name (Eighty-Eight Suns Rising) than with her personality; if I were to give her a nickname like that now, it'd probably be something more along the lines of Avoiding Forthrightness or Half an Hour Wasted in Circumlocution. Which sound more like Larceny or Socialize charm names: Excellent Forthrightness Avoidance Technique. Dazzling Circumlocution Method.

Lol...

I do have a Drinker of Seeping Poisons...which could lead to circumlocution...if one were drinking them and writing at the same time...and immune.
