Procrastination…
Well, it’s arrived. My first-ever sex scene is the next thing I need to write.
But first, why don’t I reread that unpublished manuscript for a children’s book about dogs that I wrote 8 years ago? It’s not too bad – a few changes of phrasing and spacing, and it could be ready to submit again. And since I’m on a dog kick, how about finishing that dog-show book I’ve been reading on occasion? Nice pacing in that – I can learn something.
Tax time is looming too. Lots of official documents to organize for the accountant. Bills to pay – the mortgage is due – that reminds me, I have to get stamps today at the grocery store.
The grocery store – of course! Our Super Bowl party is tomorrow, so I have to add numerous items to the list for snacks, appetizers, that chowder I always make. And there are extra chores I have to do, of course – can’t forget about them. Launder the throw rugs, clean the powder room, pester my husband to wash the salt stains off the entryway floors…
Let’s see, what else? I know, it’s January – time to stock up on greeting cards! And that coat closet needs to be reorganized. My bureau drawers, too. And work, of course – I brought some home with me, like always. I could get started on that…
What was I going to write again?
