All caught up on my writing!
Just finished my 500 for today--I took a lunch with Jim & Liz at work and thus didn't write during my lunch break: instead I waited until I got home. Yesterday I got all caught up and then some, and today I kept up with it.
Today's bit of writing was especially interesting: Mer is experiencing a sort of controlled amnesia (damn those tricksy Company Men!) and has been convinced that Bryn is her enemy. My writing both yesterday and today concerned a scene where she had to choose who to believe: Bryn or Community, Incorporated. It's one of the darker scenes I've written, and I tried combining my love of using short, choppy sentences in tense situations with almost second-flash intervals of writing. Reading that sentence over I know it won't make sense to anyone but me...but the point is that I think (read: hope) that this tweaked style will convey the emptiness, the numbness, and the crushing feeling of being lost that Mer is experiencing in this scene.
Anyway, I've got to shower, cook, and still try to get to bed at a reasonable hour. Time to get going!
Live long and prosper!
