No writing on Day 3 and 4. Just too much going on and I turned into a sloth during the little free time I had.

But I'm back at it today. This morning I wrote and transcribed 350 new words, and I will spend time looking for an episode in which Illya Kuryakin briefly thinks Napoleon has been killed. I can't remember which episode it was. I want to take a fast look at it to see how to use this specific bit of the episode in my story. I hope it won't take too long to find the episode.

In other writing activities, I will create the Weekly Reader post for mfuwss, and write some overdue notes to some friends.

Being a sloth is also good.

I agree completely:) Thanks!

Everyone needs to rest from time to time. But you're back on track again, and that's what counts.

Thanks:) I'm happy to have gotten back on track. I can't afford to skip days, there's only two weeks left!

Sloths are good (have you heard the Flanders and Swann song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RNqBOyPX9Y)?)

I'm glad you got stuff done today, though! And watching the episodes to find that all-important scene is research :)

I have not heard the song! I love it!
Still haven't scanned the episodes, but I will do it today. I already know I'm going to use the first scene from the first episode and the last scene from the final episode. The trick will be to find the episode in which one character thinks the other one has been killed. Fortunately there are some wonderful websites that summarize the episodes, so I hope I can find it quickly. Then in the days to come I'll watch the episodes — I have the DVDs, yay that will be fun!

It's a sign of Serious Fanning when we are pretty sure which episodes we have to go to for certain sorts of scenes {g}

LOL yup. The trouble is, the scene I can't find is tiny, and it has nothing to do with the plot! So I'm looking for a needle in a haystack among the many, many, many episodes I can't categorically rule out. I think I'm going to have to give up on finding that scene, though. I've spent enough time looking for it with no luck. My last resort, and this is only after I have pretty much finished the story — I could scan the scripts and do a last minute revision to use the scene instead of inventing something:)

Well, if I ever do find that scene, I'll use it for some other little story!
