subject line not forthcoming

I am sitting here, looking at a few unexpected Etsy/eBay orders. I've had a strange flurry of emails from customers in the last few days--everybody wants multiple things or something I used to sell or some other festive variation. Nice, even though it's a teensy bit annoying. But I probably shouldn't complain about getting business.

I am feeling a little grumpy. Just a little. I'm kind of in between fic right now, and I really need to finish a birthday present fic I started writing a while ago. I like writing, and I can't wait to write this, and I'm actually a happier person while I'm writing. And once I'm done with this, my "slate" will be clean. I might have to start something original. We'll see.

Grumpy, though. Just a little. I don't know if it's because I'm not writing something this very minute or whatever. Or because winter is coming.

Strangely, I can't stop thinking about Wavedancer. I thought that blathering about it would get it out of my system. Somehow it keeps sneaking up on the edge of my consciousness, insisting that there is still a viable story in there somewhere.

Right now I have that panicked feeling of What Should I Be Doing Right Now. That's the sucky part about having your own business, even one as small as mine; there are a million things on the to-do list, but it's hard to isolate which one I should be working on for the next hour. I will just have to guess, as always.

Am watching Simon & Simon. Rick is dressed a little like Indiana Jones. Leather jacket and hat. Strange.

I'm so afraid of this very thing come December. This month is of course complete chaos with fics due, freelance job craziness and the like, but when it's all done and after I have that moment to breathe with relief, the panic of What Next will set in...sooo not looking forward to that...even though I can't wait for that breathing-with-relief thing...

This is where I'll tell you to WRITE STUFF! And I'm a big fan of the Original Fic idea...in fact, I have some ideas for you...heehee!

What Next is the worst kind of panic! I shake in my boots at the very thought. And I'm the worst kind of procrastinator, too, so What Next often takes a century or two to develop. ugh.

And I will definitely be writing! hells yes! I have what I hope is a great idea for the Original Fic. *nodnod*
