Happy 4th of July

[icemink]

First of all, a very happy independence day to my fellow Americans.

Secondly, for anyone wondering what happened to me, or why you haven't seen much of my writing lately, well, I'm currently lacking a writing space. What do I mean? Well I don't yet have furniture or an internet connection in my apartment, so I've been spending my free time at my parents using their chairs and their wi-fi. The thing is, I find it kind of hard to write smut when my dad's a few feet away asking me how to get rid of fonts he doesn't want. But never fear, I actually did manage to get the next chapter of The Guardian written, and sent it off to be betad. I'm going to try something crazy and actually wait for a chapter to be betad before I post it this time. Of course I think my writing may be a bit slow until I finally get my couch back.

However, tomorrow is my day to post at buffyversemeta. And I can write meta in my parents presence, so tomorrow you'll see a rather long essay on motherhood in the buffyverse from me. That's all for now.

I'm going to try something crazy and actually wait for a chapter to be betad before I post it this time. ha! that's awesome, i thought i was the only one who did that! *g* so good to know i'm not alone.

do you by any chance keep fiddling with things, even after you've sent it off to the beta? that's something else that is, apparently, a vital part of my process.

and oh man, i totally feel you on not being able to bring the smut while the folks are around. recently i went home on a visit, and even though i spent good chunks of time hunched over the computer, none of it was smut. i just can't!

good luck with getting it all sorted out! :D
