eponymous_roseSrsly. As long as the lack-of-sleep thing isn't making my writing totally wonky and incoherent, I think I may just have written over four thousand words' worth of WF chapterage in one evening. And they're fairly good words. This means that chapter two should be posted tomorrow, and my luverly beta should find chapter three in her inbox tomorrow as well! :D
Phew. I'm going to bed early, but first - the Friday Five! Because it's totally Friday today.
1. What is the best part about late summer?
Hm. Getting a bit of a glimpse of fall before the snow comes? Nah. It's really the back-to-school vibe. I love it. Searching for classes, madly swapping courses to avoid professors only to have them take over your class anyway, looking for textbooks that haven't necessarily been published yet. Good times! :D
2. What is your favourite summer memory and why?
Very, very specific. Sitting in a minivan on the way to my Gran and Grandad's house in BC, passing through a tunnel and trying to keep track of how many there are while listening to the soundtrack from Cats. I have extremely fond memories of the Shuswap Lake and miss it horribly. Another finalist in the good-memory category would be not wiping out when attempting windsurfing for the first time.
3. When you were small, did you realize that summer holidays were not going to happen forever?
Nope. But considering the fact that I spent my summer holidays teaching my stuffed animals to read, write, and do math (and occasionally condescending to do the same to my little brother), I probably would've been thrilled at the idea. :D
4. Where was your favourite summer vacation? Why?
Driving trip across the States with my family. Because I love Washington D.C. way more than is healthy. :D
5. If you could have one last real summer vacation and cost was not an issue, where would you go and why?
Everywhere. Just 'cause.
Okay, going off to bed. Sleep is good. :D
