I can't focus long enough to decide whether I should:
A. Work on the "big" novel
B. Work on the "small" novel, or possibly novella, which wandered into the open field of my brain a few weeks ago, and has now parked its caravan and invited its friends and family to come join it. Way to enable my procrastination, Shehriar Ahmed (yes, you). I'm filing that one on the scratchpad (see the tab at the top of the page)
C. Continue my marathon viewing of Big Bang Theory (thanks again Shehriar, and Rob too)
D. Keep editing the older novel
E. Obsess about work problems
F. Resume piano lessons
G. Shop for a reasonably-priced digital piano
The older novel, Natural Selection, was high on my to-do list, until I realised how bloody unwieldy it is. I usually try to keep chapters between two-to-four thousand words, roughly, but as I was converting the Word document into Scrivener chapters, I did a double-take on one of word-counts. Thirteen thousand words! For one chapter! I've abandoned novels which were short of that length. This, I saw, was going to be more work than I'd anticipated
Maybe I should just focus on finishing season 2 of Big Bang Theory. That I can do.
