What do you have going? (writing-wise)
The stuff that isn't yet ready for the Writer's Workshop: a short story? a novel? how long have you been working on it [them]? what is it/are they about?
I would say something myself, but I don't have anything to add. Aside from my poncey little journal, I'm worn out on writing.. for the next few days, at least.
I've got a novel a little less than halfway finished.
I've got eleven short stories that are out and trying to find publications to snuggle up in.
I've got about four hundred finished poems, maybe sixty of which I'm confident in and even like myself, but I haven't submitted any of them for some reason.
Never get so attached to a poem you forget truth that lacks lyricism.
I'm doing research for mine. Lots of spider diagrams.
Too busy living to write.
Too busy doing nothing to write.

What are you researching for? Novel? Short story? Screenplay? Marzipan voodoo effigy?

But apparently not too busy to write that you're too busy to write?

Do you really need this explained?
i think, proto being who he is, that he means this is an idea foreign to him.

Jealousy? I call it boredom.
Boredom? I call it jealousy. And by jealousy, I mean that I'm going to have sex with you.
Researching for an essay on Dashiell Hammett's works.

A thousand ideas and no motivation.
hey, i guess that's cooler than having ideas and actually writing about them.

Tuffy- I was curious about whether this was an actual statement or if it was some kind of condescension. It's really hard to tell with you.
