his past week I have written in Starbucks, Panera's #1, Panera's #2, the UNF library 4th floor, the UNF library 2nd floor, and from the comfort of home. Unfortunately the comfort of home is oft disturbed by senile!cat's yowling or kittens!knocking things over, hence Starbucks, Panera's, and UNF. I did try to write at Barnes and Noble, but the cafe was jammed and this store doesn't have any other seating.
Going to Starbucks or Panera's isn't necessarily good for my waist line or wallet, but it's been good for productivity. I've been writing about 1,000 new words a day on teen mystery 2 as well as revising earlier chapters. The manuscript is due on Dec 1 and I'm very confident about getting there, especially with this coming week off from the day classes. But I did promise to write 2 other stories due on Nov, so I foresee more passion tea lemonade in my immediate future.
I don't usually wear headphone when I'm writing in public because what's the fun in that? Eavesdrop, baby! Great for picking up lines of dialogue or new views on the world. This is from a conversation overheard while clothes shopping:
Woman #1: You can't wear that jacket with teal pants. They won't approve.
Woman #2: Who is they?
Woman #1: The people who wear clothes that match.
In other news, senile!cat is meowing right this minute because she knows I'm trying to post. Everyone say hi to Leia!
