Taking out your frustrations on the poor characters, are you? 8-) I'm sure you'll find the balance later.
Me, I did some flailing around writing terrible sentences, then some freewriting, then some whining and complaining. The freewriting bit tells me I'm reading too many articles about Social Media In This Day and Age, heh. It was cathartic, but it's not going to be a story. Oh well!
The bulk of my writing today was, as usual, on the nonfiction project. This is weird writing, btw. Aside from introductory bits, and notes on everything (mostly for the offshoot projects!) it consists of describing books and articles, etc., in 25 words or less briefly and concisely. My eyes are starting to cross.
But it's still fun! Today I was (mostly for my own amusement) tracking an article from the early 1900s -- a "listicle" about objects that can be seen from the summit of my landmark mountain. It moved through all the local newspapers, apparently for years, like a slow-moving meme. Made good filler, I guess.
