Tem homework

I worked on a story idea for the Tem writing workshop homework due next Thursday. I think I’m beginning to see how to fit what I want to do into a short assignment.

Writer’s Circle

I attended the Writer’s Circle critique group, but had to leave early due to a call from my wife; basically, I had to come home to be a Dad. I did commit to having a story ready for next month’s group, though. Now I just need to decide what to write.

Fires and the Blahs

Today at lunch I critiqued two short stories for the Writer’s Circle writing group that’s meeting tomorrow. I felt pretty blah all day; I’m not sure what’s up with that. Perhaps all the fires are just getting me down. Instead of staying late at work, I went home on time (for once) and engaged in some Morrowind role-playing, and that helped alleviate the mood quite a bit. I also slept well for the first time in several nights.
