david cook and the pips

I haven't gotten as much writing done as I'd like in the last couple of days due to an overwhelming urge to take naps. But, I feel that when your body is tired you gotta listen. Fighting it will result in one of two things: sickness or sloppiness. I don't want sloppy writing (okay no jokes about my writing after margaritas!) and I don't want sickness, so I indulged in naptime.

Also, I had an idea for another novel, so I grabbed one of my handy dandy notebooks that I have just for such an occasion and madly scribbled (because happy scribbling is just plain weird) everything I could about the idea, like character names, back story, plot, scene snippets, etc. It would be a historical romance set in (when else?), the Regency period with gothic elements, you know, heroine in peril, murder, mayhem, and mega steaminess! I already have another gothic novel in the works, but you can never have too many ideas poised for action.

Well, now I'm ready for my real bedtime. Hopefully, my dreams of meat will cease and desist.
