Good signs

Dec 12, 2004

I did 21 pages yesterday, which is great, but I also did eight pages today. That’s, in some ways, a better sign, because sometimes when you do some marathon page number the next day or two you’re dried out. But I was eager to work once I sat down to it, again late in the day. But the eight pages has tired me out. I’m done for the day, but that’s okay, because I’ve exceeded the five page goal. So I’m done, and I’m over quota. Very cool.
Yesterday I listened to the musical JEKYLL AND HYDE, original Broadway cast. Today it’s been Breaking Benjamin’s WE ARE NOT ALONE. I find that I’m changing music sometime half-way through the work day, but at the very least everyday, I change out. I’ve stopped fighting it, and complaining that with Anita I do the same music for days at a time. I’ve stopped complaining that this isn’t the way I work, and accepting that, yea, actually, it is the way I work, when I’m working with Merry. Different isn’t bad, it’s just different.
