The Book I Couldn't Put Down

My week of self-imposed brevity is technically over, but tonight's entry will be short, anyway. I plan to stick to the short format for a while, except for an occasional longer posting as I have time and the subject matter demands. For the short ones, I won't necessarily keep it to one paragraph, though. On a lot of the past week's entries, I changed subjects several times without making a paragraph break. Rather than continue to do that, I'll allow for several paragraphs while keeping the overall word count down.

Today I tried and failed to give blood. This happens about half the time when I go over there, usually because my hemoglobin isn't quite high enough. So I'll eat more meat and spinach and oatmeal, and try again in two weeks. I also visited Wikipedia for the first time in a week, for no more than an hour, just skimming my watchlist and replying to a few messages. No big deal. See there? I don't have to overdo it.

Or do I? I finally posted the beginning of my Fayubi and Jor scene on Messages from Mâvarin tonight. I had stalled out in my typing of the scene due to the need to look up which guard was likely to be at the King's door. I went looking for him in an appropriate scene in Return to Mâvarin, and ended up reading parts of seven chapters, all the way to the end of the Mages trilogy. Gee, I love that book. I cleaned up some typos and noticed some inconsistencies, but it's going to be a heck of a story by the time I'm done revising it.

I'd better get to it.
