The night before Tuesday, I got to bed a bit after 8:45. First goal met, which is a huge relief after I missed it a few times last week. {Smile}
After breakfast, I did some freewriting. I am searching for the problem that keeps my stories stuck or flowing slowly at best by writing what came to me when I thought about it. I think I found it right when I needed to leave for class. Still, that means I found it, and I can search for solutions later. The problem is: "How can I give my own characters richer, fuller lives without hurting my own social life?" {SMILE}
Before lunch, my relief nurse took me to Kamana Senior Center for my Creative Writing Class. It went well. I found the lecture interesting. I also had something to share for our small groups, though it was just freewriting about why I was having trouble getting back into writing "One May Day. " I helped both of my partners with their pieces, too. I got my free writing from last week back from my teacher with comments. I hope they'll help me too. Then, after class, my main nurse took me back home. {Smile}
I read Forward Day by Day over breakfast. After I got back from class, I watched a couple of videos and read a few comics, but not the intense searching I've been doing recently. Maybe the freewriting is helping. I wrote some of Monday's daily update, then stopped to go into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I got Aneira and went to her teen supergroup's base. I searched for a crafting table to use while I waited for the meeting to start because I had something that can be made at one. Our leader's alternate character even commented at how I was running around. I hadn't noticed her in passing; I only noticed her comment later. That started a conversation when I did find her. We continued to roleplay as others arrived, including Jenny's Player, Nyxy, and the new gal, each on one of their characters. We chose to do a strike force for villains, which didn't fit our heroic group, but it was shorter than the taskforce alternative, so it fit someone's schedule much better. Afterwards, we did a little more roleplaying in our supergroup's base, but it broke up soon afterwards. This gave me time to do some of the in-game auction house, storage and crafting on Aneira before dinner. {Smile}
I had tacos for dinner with my relief nurse while re-reading Forward Day by Day. After dinner, I wrote up the rest of Wednesday's Daily update. Then I went back to City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game. Kitten soon came in, and we got together. Seb said hi, but didn't join at that time. Kitten and I finished a story arc that I had on Seameownt, the character Kitten designed. Seb joined near the end. When the story arc was done, we started doing individual missions from the same contact. Next, Kitten left, too tired to continue. After a few more missions, we reached a set of missions I didn't have time for. We did an individual mission from another contact, then a mission from yet another contact. After that, Seb and I said goodnight. I worked on the in-game auction house, storage and crafting on Seameownt. Next, I checked Cross Stitch World. Then I wrote in this, soon shifting to making notes in this. I finished my evening by saying the Lord's Prayer, Saint Francis's Prayer, and the motto of the Daughters of the King. {Smile}
