it was a beautiful day
No, music player, just because I listened to the one track by Feargal Sharkey, and I like U2, does not mean I want to go through every Clannad track on my hard drive.

Posts I have thought about writing today:
- why I didn't take up acting after investing two years for GCSE in it.
- why the Raven Cycle disappointed me so much (I actually, literally, stomped my foot in the shower, being so annoyed at myself for even thinking about this. I try not to, because it makes me stabbity). (hashtag getting mad at authors for not writing the books i want) (I suppose I would be less mad if I actually liked Ronan?)
Things I am doing today instead:
- rewriting a story I once wrote for a friend, but haven't touched in six years. I started thinking about how I'd write it if I were doing it now, rather than back when I was 23, and how different it would be.
I mean, not that it requires that much fiddling, since it's the same old same old that I write when I'm stuck for what to write (i.e. Hardcore Schmoop because I am the soppiest romantic you know*). But it's how I'd change how the main characters are. Like, I've only got 500 words so far, but I already know this time it's the guy who's less confident than the other main character (instead of the other way around, as it was in the original).
Although all I'm doing is getting it to a point where I can start the story proper right now, but that doesn't matter because it's all writing at the end of the day. I might end up using some of this in the story once it gets going anyway.
Anyway, I'm enjoying it, even if getting the words down is actually like pulling teeth.
