I AM TOTALLY AT LOOSE ENDS!

I am forcibly giving myself a day off writing to recharge. Figured it would be a good time to start screwing around with Scrivener, because my next book will require keeping track of things like characters and settings and timelines, and Scrivener looks like it might help me do a good job of that, and also I'm freaking sick of Word a little bit.

Also, I am blasting Metallica very loudly. Old Metallica, when they were still good. Cliff Burton-era. "Ride the Lightning," to be specific. Rar.

Starting a new book!

Just tippy-typing some notes so far, actually.

I'm at a very pleasant coffee joint in Pacific Beach. I like this neighborhood. It's far enough north from Garnet Ave. that it might not be full of bar-hopping knuckleheads at night. And I can see ocean when I look down the street. Definitely an area to check out when the current lease runs dry in a few months.
