decisions, decisions

the good part of this decision is that I win either way. The bad part is that I’m still procrastinating, and any writer will tell you we’re capable of procrastinating for weeks, months…years…without remorse.

I’m two chapters from the end of the book. The last one is cleaning techniques, and I skipped the original chapters 5 & 7 and am combining them into one (financing, taxes…ick…). I’ve written the last approximately 10K words longhand in two notebooks and it’s time to (soon) start typing.

However, tonight is a quiet night on the homefront. The hub is sick with the flu and the kid is in front of the PSP. I can write most of the next chapter (maybe even all of it) tonight, and type everything tomorrow, or type tonight and write tomorrow.

I know, I know. Give you a real problem, right? Or maybe, since I’ve been writing most of the day, I treat myself to some web surfing time (all writing related), or reading one of the new Buddhist philosophy books I got for Xmas.

Who said writing was easy?!!

Or, heck, I could even try working out the first chapter of that fiction story I’ve been mentally plotting…(bad beth…bad, bad, bad!)
