About Road Trip!

It's been a horribly busy week, mostly because I've been really pushing myself on Ellis. I managed to write 5300 words this week (I had set myself the goal of 5-6 thousand). I'm still pushing hard fro my July 31st deadline, and am not sure I'm going to make it. We'll see.

A lot of it depends on how much work I can get done while on a weeks vacation. Yes, starting tomorrow, Becca and I will road trip down to Ashland, OR to meet my parents and my sister for nearly a week of Shakespeare at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. We have tickets to see Othello on Saturday and The Comedy of Errors on Tuesday.

As odd as it might seem, traveling and vacations really stir the creative juices in me and get me writing. Part of it is the lack of familiar and comfortable distractions, but I give most of the credit to the change of environment and the energy that builds in me when I'm out exploring. Plus, since this is my parents, they won't even be awake until 11 am, so I'll need something to do from 6 - 11.

Becca is not so pleased by the Shakespeare and being stuck in a town that only seems to be filled with touristy shops and used books stores, but that's heaven for me. The Panic! concert was part bribe, part apology for being drug around town for 5 days. She did have some fun last year when we did this, so I hope it won't be too bad for her.

I will have computer access while I'm gone and can be reached here or at my new gmail address, which is tafeanorn AT gmail DOT com.

Also while I'm gone I want to do a big write-up about how the Palazzo game is going, so look for that. I'm not entirely sure what's going on at tonight's session, but I have notes and some ideas.

I know she will have fun, and I look forward to nagging her about the writing project I assigned.

Will miss you both, though. I bet the cats will be miserable. But at least you won't have to be anywhere near my casserole!
