4.15.2010: Deadline Poem

I have five days to write this paper.
I have to wash my car.
I have four days to write this paper.
I think I'll go for a hike.
I have three days to write this paper.
My friends brought over a stack of movies.
I have two days to write this paper.
I am really hungover.
I have one day to write this paper.
I still have time.
i have four hours to write this paper.
Where did the time go?

Writing Update

So, I finally parked my butt and did some writing last night. I wrote another Muse Dialogue last night, so now I have eight of those. They have been getting a bit short on me lately. I should probably remedy that. But I think it's easier for me to write when I don't really have any set limitations.
I also wrote some more out of the short story I'm working on. I now have twenty-five pages. My aunt agreed to read my manuscript, so I'm trying to have it finished my October 4, our family reunion. I'll also see her tomorrow, so it would be nice if I could get it finished before then, but I'm not counting on it. I just need to remember that this is my first draft and that it doesn't have to be perfect.The perfectionist in me is arguing that last bit every step of the way. I plan on spending today writing. Wish me luck! I'm excited. Are you?
