My Second Play

Since I'm back to my nest for a few days, I'll post something (by the way, bits of August are going to be barmy since I'm supposed to do even more work for my Muggles).
So, I'm still working on  several stories, and I must say that I'm quite happy with my plots.
I'm still letting my first play rest before I edit it, and I think I might even try to draw the stage sets for my different acts before I comma-hunt my text.

When I'm not too tired, because of my Muggles, I type a few sentences here and there (right now, I'm working on one short story, one play and my Sci-Fi plot).

My play's plot is going to be slightly odd because it's going to be a kind of testament. It's not (not at all) that the Void is threatening to gulp me down, but life ends eventually, be it by accident or whatever, and I do not want sharks blood relatives or strangers to speak for me after my death, and so, I'm planning to write a confession/testament/testimony.
I hope to manage to turn this idea into something interesting. It's all in the presentation after all.

I must say that I'm beginning to like writing plays.

Summer News

Ah... the "joys" of summer!
On top of wishing to fire July for forcing me to cling to (at least!) one jumper, summer usually means that I get to spend weeks with my relatives (if I nicknamed my mama's house New Privet Drive, you'll understand that it sets the tone).
I could be stuck with DNA-related bipeds who'd leave me alone, but it's not the case... which explains my relative silence. I'm being slaved à la Potter, and I'm just too tired to post regularly (by the way, potential typos in this particular post shall be edited only when I'm back to my nest, with brain cells rested and in working order).
I haven't been able to type much, and I couldn't start editing my first play either.
I'm collecting odd/weird/rare words that I'm going to use in my Sci-Fi short stories (I'm somehow challenging myself with these). As well, I'm thinking about my plots and I'm writing down outlines.
I'm slow, but when I can work quietly, I'll have things to share...
I'll try a different schedule in August in order to post a tad more.
