    <<The conflict between realism and usability...>>

    Tell me about it. I have a couple foundational ideas I'm working with but I haven't practiced them yet. They seem a little complicated but they might not be too bad, its hard to tell. Ill publish soon and look for feedback if anyone is interested.

    One thing I'm looking at is making the rules with forums in mind, rather than kitchen tables. People can take more time with their turns in that context.

    ... Maybe.

    I wrote you a pm as it was a little long for a comment here.

    Accidentally, prematurely published a chapter. Always knew it *could* happen, but never done it before. Sorry for the false bump.

    Reminds me of the time I sent out a chapter that had "fuck titles, titles suck!" as a working title (for obvious reasons) because I clicked publish rather than save as draft. At least it was finished. (except for the title)

    Premature publication happens to a lot of guys. Its nothing to be embarrassed about.

    I too remember this one time, where i released prematurely.

    I was really embarrassed, but kept a cool head and deleted the chapter right away.

    I wonder - if did a bit of meth, would I smash my current writing lethargy?

    Lol unfortunately Ive discovered I can't write and drink. Even a little drink spoils me.

    So the alcohol has become a reward, incentive for a job well done...

    I haven't had a drop in two days! Uggh.

    I can only write comedy while drunk for some reason. In my experience every kind of drug is counter intuitive to writing (Although my experience range is VERY, VERY small)

    Joking aside, you don't need any drug to write. You've all written good stuff while sober. Perhaps all you need to beat your lethargy is a break to refresh the mind.

    Hah, I don't know what font she used.

    I do know that I have an unhealthy fondness for ellipsis and for breaking up dialogue and paragraphs with lots and lots of spacing...

    How that factors in over time to increasing my overall page count vs word count...

    Well...

    Just look...

    That could be it then, especially my later chapters contain few breaks and i only, if ever, use Ellipsis in speech or thought these days.

    2) ...Despair
    3) ...Go drinking or sleeping or drinking AND THEN sleeping.
    4) ...Still stuck next morning
    5) ...Have a wank

    Something like that.

    I hate my username. Could it be changed to Loeman? Explanation: I was looking at a can of Canada Dry sparkling water when I made it.
