It's really amazing, the things
It's really amazing, the things you find to do when you're avoiding a writing project. I managed to research family history and research scanners, DVD players, and trackballs this afternoon.
I did, however, also manage to do some disease research, which I needed to do for my project. Go me.
Like I said in an email to Brand -- who's the head writer on Liberation -- "I need to be somewhere where the frigging PHONES aren't ringing. The idea's right there, but it won't come out. I feel like I'm in labor." I hate this feeling. It makes me feel unfocused and fidgety, with my attention leaping from one thing to another.
Someone needs to come up with a Lamaze class for ideas.
Posted by Lisa at August 22, 2001 04:29 PM*laugh* Lamaze class for ideas. Sign me up!
Posted by: Julie at August 23, 2001 08:50 AMHeh, /I/ need someone to come up with one! I'm awful with ideas. Give me someone else's idea, and if I like it, I can write up a storm. Make me come up with my own, and this is what I do. It's not always that way, sometimes ideas come to me full on (more like a Zeus-Athena thing than childbirth), but not usually. Feh. :P
