I procrastinate...

...therefore I am. Well, lazy basically. I should be writing chapters for my writing group; I should be cleaning my house; I should be thinking about dinner; I should be napping. Hey, I have an infant.

I feel retarded reading chapters my groupmates have composed. Mostly because of the lack of proper punctuation in my work. I basically vomit words onto a page, and they seem to fit perfectly to me in a sentence. But here's the catch. Nothing is as sterling and perfect once it leaves my head and plops wetly on the page. Eww. Yeah, like far flung spit after a good sneeze. Ok, I grossed myself out.

editing/revising is more than half of writing, i've discovered. :) encouraging aint it? well, that's what having a group is for - they will catch all your errors for you :)
