Oh, it's that time again. I'm technically conscious, but that could just be an illusion. I'm still tired even though I slept a good 7 hours today and 9.5 yesterday. Everything seems distant and unreal this evening and the thought of staying up all night does not, in the least, appeal to me. I know there are things that I'm supposed to be doing, but I can't for the life of me remember what they are. Oh yeah. The Book. In this 'final' edit of the Book, my co-author is doing a major restructuring to balance out character appearance a bit more and make it a little more linear. (For instance, we have a character that appears in chapter 7 and then doesn't reappear until Chapter 24) So I have to try and split and enhance chaper 24 into two chapters, one of which is to appear somewhere between 7 and 24. Wish i had some writer's soma :P I may do that tonight, if I get the urge. Although, I'm quite down on my writing right this moment because I'm reading a book by someone who can really write. It's called 'earthly power' by anthony burgess, the guy who wrote A Clockwork Orange. He is one of those old school writers who could actually write. I mean, no one writes like that anymore and actually, it's quite depressing because it seems like the age of the good writer has died. Sure we have commercially successful writers these days, but none of them write like this. There will most likely never be another Burgess or Aldous Huxley. Makes one think we've all gone retarded, that we are all truly dumber than those years ago. Fuck.
