What makes me unique...

I got a chance to get in a good, free roaming conversation with theofotos  today, and that was pretty awesome.  Mostly we talked about the business end of the creative industry, a little about comics (which are worth studying, particularly DC and Marvel, if you want to see how a multi-decade, multi-creator narrative is handled and mishandled.  It's far more fascinating than the exploits of the characters, IMO) and game design, which now has me fired up to go back and poke at the last game we played together and see if there is something in that.  

I have a lot of revision to do for Live Arcade and Draftyhouse, too.  And, obviously, Pirates.  I don't think I will be doing NaNo again, even in solidarity; this is not how I write.  I remember saying this last year, too, but maybe I will remember when next November comes around.  I DO NOT WRITE LIKE THAT.

I may be coming out of the bad patch of anxiety.  I find when I say that, I have at least a week to go, but this time, I am not interested in being strong or being proud, just getting to the other end.  Of course, this could be THE TIME, but that is largely out of my hands, so fuck it.  I will live or not, but, historically, I have survived and today I managed 50 (admittedly, kneeling) pushups and a very vigorous sweeping of my house along with lots of other rushing around, cleaning things, so what the hell.  Bed soon, writing tomorrow, if I can manage.  Then work and then last_real_angel joins my Monday game!   I enjoyed Thanksgiving, but I am more comfortable back at work.  Having things to do makes me do things.  Anyway, sleep well people, I shall hear from you in the morning.
