Yeah, I sat down tonight and wrote it out.\u00a0 You know how you feel when you have an idea in your mind of what you want to happen on the next page, or you think of a good exchange of dialogue, and when you sit down to write it you forget it?\u00a0 That was what tonight was like.\u00a0 but it’s so late that I’m loosing coherence in my thoughts.\u00a0 I figure if I just lay it down for now, I’ll pick it up later and do better at it.<\/p>\n
Today was the really tough day.\u00a0 I had a midterm, an Arabic quiz, and a Philosophy summary.\u00a0 I think I aced the test!\u00a0 But that ate up the morning (not to mention President Monson’s BYU address, which I thought was pretty good).\u00a0 Then, Arabic was something to stress over, but it was fairly straightforward.\u00a0 Then, this summary–which I’ve been wrestling with for a few hours.\u00a0 Blech.\u00a0 But at the end of it, I came to thin gthat Kierkegaard was a pretty cool guy. But man, I whish I could do these summaries faster!<\/p>\n
I have a lot of things I’d like to blog on–for example:<\/p>\n
The AML conference and why my friend Steve and I think that all literary types are perverts (well, maybe not ALL, but quite a few of them!)<\/p>\n
Some cool exercises that we did at the AML conference, on conflict, setup, and other stuff.<\/p>\n
A review of Mistborn (if I get around to it).<\/p>\n
Some crazy thoughts about how you could think of writing and critiquing on different levels of analysis, kind of like you have your three (possibly four) levels of analysis in Political science.<\/p>\n
Just some stuff exploring my characters a little more.\u00a0 I really want to do this!\u00a0 Maybe I could stage some kind of a mock interview on this blog, and explore each of them that way–write them up like guests on my show here, and just talk with them about stuff.<\/p>\n
And now I”m losing my coherency. It is WAY past my bedtime. gnight!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
