NFE '19, Take 1
Jul. 23rd, 2019 06:56 pmI got an idea almost immediately after receiving the prompts (that must be a first, they were incredibly well matched to what I felt like writing this year), and during a routine day at work, it developed almost fully, I thought.
It also meant I didn't write it down, and then didn't get around to it, and through more routine days at work, it has percolated through my head and been reshaped a bit. I jotted down a couple of things on my phone. Part of it I later realised would be better left out of the story this was shaping up to be.
So I sat down at my computer, downloaded the file into my computer, and decided that redundant part should be moved into the file with random ideas for The Peridan Chronicles...
... and while I was there, I realised another of those ideas had long had a place in the actual Peridan Chronicles, and moved it there and...
Yeah, I think you can guess where this is going. I spent an hour or two polishing off something quite a bit ahead in The Peridan Chronicles, not writing the NFE story.
*shrugs*

P.S. Also I completely forgot about the tea I'd made myself. At least I got luckier than this dinosaur and only forgot about it after I'd taken out the teabag...
(Link leads to shittydinosaurdrawings, one of the few Tumblr blogs I read, which I wholeheartedly recommend for fluff and cute idiosyncratic humour with mostly feathered dinosaurs and questionable spelling, and general making of days. The tea comics is the crowning glory of it, but it's all good.)
