Riding out the storm

We just had a lovely little spring storm; a bit of wind, thunder, rain. Nothing serious, and it was nice to see it arrive, even though I watched the temperature drop ten degrees in ten minutes -- never a good thing.

It has mostly passed. We might get a bit more tonight, but I think the Tornado Watch is a bit excessive. Probably just trying to get us trained for a busy season. It has that feel. But the rain is already turning things nice and green, so I think we'll have a lovely spring.

A shame about that snow we're supposed to have on Wednesday.

I had just posted the Week 4 set of short story class material before the storm hit, so I was feeling pretty good about that part. I wanted to post it about midnight last night, but I decided to hold off and rethink how I wanted to approach this week's writing exercise. I am glad to have it done. Only two more weeks of the class, and the last one is going to be on specialized stories, so that should be fun.

My own writing is going very well. I'm quite pleased with the work on Kat Among the Pigeons, even though it gave me fits over the weekend. Ask the people in chat (grin). I got past that part, though, and it's moving along much better again. I get annoyed when a story gives me problems like that, but it feels great once they're worked out.

I am still not certain what I am going to do for the March Madness challenge at FM. That's coming up pretty fast, too. It start's on Wednesday. I better get a clue soon!
