caddymanI realised today how to develop the story idea that's been looping around in my head for the past few months.
Now I have a direcdtion for it and an end point to aim for. I'm still unsure as to how long it will be; probably only a short story, but nonetheless longer than the snippets I've sprinkled like conffetti across my hard drive and occasional interweb fora over the past 12 months or so.
And now I have the inspiration, I find myself too tired to do anything about it. The room is warm and stuffy and I've had to turn the fan on again after one night of blissful cool. I think that a bloody warm front has gone over - it is actually warmer now than it was at 7pm.
The upshot is that I am somnolent and lethargic. It is a triumph of flesh over spirit since my mind is still filing away story options while I type this, but I know that I need to sit and give the idea my all if it is to read convincingly, and right now, pointless ramble such as this is as far as I can physically progress.

jimfer has just this moment announced to me by Messenger that he doesn't "do witty."
After a half hour natter with the lad I'm inclined to agree.
That is all.
