I've hit a wall: I don't know how my story ends, and I can't move forward until I do. Hence I'll be taking a short (one day) break, before I go insane. Given the seizure I might have had over the weekend, this will be a chance for my body to recoup. If I did have a seizure, it wouldn't exactly be a shock given my behavior. Remember how I called myself a dumb-ass a few posts back? I forgot to mention that I started taking my pills at strange hours, usually hours earlier/later than I'm used to. Combine that with stress and a very adult hot chocolate and, well, I thrash around like a fish out of water. I was asleep at the time, so I only have Ying's testimony to rely on. Maybe I was having a nightmare.
Don't worry, Ying nagged me roundly for my naughtiness. Later, I will punish myself with laundry. I have plenty to choose from, what with the mountain range of dirty clothes sprawling across our bedroom ; )
Giddy news: My short, "108," is going to be in
DEAD BELLS! The elates me to no end, as the tale was specifically written for them and I would have hated to change it for another marker. The story is set in Kyoto, and revolves around a character Ying refers to as "the lonely Japanese man."

Kadomatsu, a traditional Japanese New Year decoration. This particular style is popular in Kyoto.

Congrats on the acceptance, and I hope Ying doles out a fitting punishment :)
Yay, acceptance! Very medicinal, breaks down walls.
To hell with the laundry. :-(
COngrats, Nat! - You naughty girl you. I'd put you over my knee but I don't want to encourage you...
Whoot! Looks like the cover is going to be awesome.
Laundry as punishment? I knew it! I knew it!
Congrats on Dead Bells-- can't wait to get my hands on that one!
As for punishment, well. Well, well, well...
Congrats on the sale! I hope your body gets back on track quickly along with the plot that's stalled out.
Congratulations. :D
Congrats on the acceptance. You should reward yourself with some Ozma after you finish punishing yourself with laundry.
I'm Ying will tell you how your ending should be... sooner or later.
Best of luck to you!
