Nice and warm, there’s now a thermostatic valve on the hot so I don’t accidentally scald myself.

Well, one nice thing is that I cleaned the bathroom sink before they arrived (it was in need of it)

Strange Things And Habits You Do While Writing
Desiderius Price replied to Tcr's topic in Writers' Corner
It did fit under the “strange thing” but I find it useful for avoiding a story where every sentence starts with “the”...because a bit tiresome/boring to me if it does. Another thing I try to do is to balance my character names a bit. Tough to do in those parts of the universe where the names are already well engrained, but I do try to do it elsewhere. For instance, I have Jaimie, Joe, Josephine, Jade, Jarred, Jefferey, Joey ...etc, I noticed that I was getting a lot of “J’s” so I’ll now try to balance out the letters in a story. (However, I can’t change the well established names, so those remain.) -

Strange Things And Habits You Do While Writing
Desiderius Price replied to Tcr's topic in Writers' Corner
One rule I follow is to never start a story with the word “The”, and I’ve extended to try to be a solid choice too, either a sound, or a more concrete, tangible thing. [And this rule came from a teacher of mine, who pushed us to not start a sentence with the word “the”… something I normally manage (though, on occasion, a “the” will slip to the start of a sentence)] -

Well shit… So imaginary presents and lots of hot showers/baths? Or maybe this is a good year to start embracing the grinch within and start stealing shit under the guise of teaching people a lesson about materialism?! Yes, I just watched the grinch...

The Grinch, such a hero, helping people learn about the true sin of gluttony and greed, and inspiring all of us to be fiscally responsible. That, and protecting children from old men bent on giving them gifts, that’s rather suspicious behavior.

I know, right? I dunno why people act like being a grinch is a bad thing. That dude was a friggin anti-consumerism hero + an introvert icon
