I can't get enough of Gerard Butler these days (movies that is) and it's gotta stop.
I need to start writing again soon. I'm afraid if I stop for too long I'll never get back to it. All the dark Scot distractions have obscured my love for Alex.
It's not all bad. My little zoo loves how much time I've spent in front of the television watching DVDs. Parrot on the shoulder, cat on the lap and dog at my feet while I continue to learn subtext. Dear Frankie is still my favourite but there are some excellent Looks in everything else I've watched.
I just popped Wrath of Gods into the DVD player. Once it's over, I have to abandon Mr. Butler for awhile. I've been studying his subtleties and nuances as well as his humour but seriously who am I kidding that it's all for the writing?
Alex is nothing like him physically though I hope he has the integrity of his characters. Blond shaggy-looking athletes are more what I need to be focused on. Got any ideas? Tao Berman doesn't fit the physical profile either but his kayaking skills shaped Alex so maybe it's back to youtube.
I have to admit I'm in a happier frame of mind, partly thanks to my mini film festival. Alex and Nea are still miserable but I have pulled back far enough to be able to write their misery with a level of objectivity I had lost in all the chaos of my home. The house is finally clean and reasonably organized. I hope my brain is as well.
We'll find out tomorrow when I get back to the story. It should be interesting, even if it doesn't star Gerard Butler.

Maybe you could give Gerard a cameo spot! ;-) Glad your back in business. Have a good writing day.
ReplyDeleteSee, believe it or not someplace inside your brain is focused on writing your story! There was absolutely no hesitation when you said you'd be writing..err..today.
ReplyDeleteMaybe, if your knee is healed and your throat is no longer sore, you could go for a walk, which always seems to spark those synapes, right? :+)
