No reading blogs, surfing the internet, checking AW's forum, and all similar procrastination techniques until after I've done some writing.
Can I make it through an entire week?
Heh. Just remembered: I haven't written yet today. Day 1, and I've already broken the rule. oops.

YA story hatching
Beautiful, huge, fluffy snowflakes were falling silently from the sky when I walked out the door this morning. The kid in me was full of wonder and excitement at the sight.
The adult in me cursed a boatload of inappropriateness - traffic was going to be a beach. <-- no, that's not a typo. :)
Started toying with a story idea with major YA tendencies. First person POV. High school setting. Love triangle. This'll be a no pressure, just-have-fun-and-write sort of deal (I refuse to stress. I refuse!). I've already scribbled a few pages of stuff down in my excitement.
Look at me, flexing my meager writing muscles! Garr!!

Happy Valentines Day to all you love birds out there!
In an effort to track the books that I've read (and to encourage myself to read at least 2 books a month), I've joined Goodreads. If you're on the site, be my friend! Updating my book shelf is such a great way to procrastinate! It also makes me realize how little I read. For shame!
On the writing front, I'm pushing myself to just do it. I officially have 3 paragraphs of my first draft down. Go me! :)
