Writing promise

musingaloudI've promised myself to spend the day either reading or writing. I have no competition from the tv--nothing on anyway. My killer will be trying to stay away from a new obsession: killer sudoku . It's basically the same as regular sudoku except instead of "starter numbers" you're given a grid with sets of "cages" or grouped squares, that must add up to the number posted. (say a cage of two squares must add up to 3, so those two squares can only contain a 1 or a 2). It was horribly hard at first but once I figured out what I was doing, I'm finding it pretty addictive. I have my little cheat sheets with lists of numbers that add up. I found these new-to-me puzzles in a little sudoku book that I unburied the other day from my basket. I wish I hadn't, although it has been a lot of fun. But a new addiction I do not need.
But since I've been so good about subbing this month, I find myself without any new stories to sub for this month. I have 2 that are pretty close to getting completed if I would just spend some time with them. But I haven't been. I've only done my minimum 100 words per day so far this month, resulting in, so far, a completely dismal heading towards a low monthly count. So yes. Today.
I tried to do a flash at LH yesterday, but I should have waited until today. I had a little less than the 90 minutes before we were leaving for the show, so I was rushed to the point that I got disgusted and gave up. Inspiration was lacking. Started two different stories and neither one was going much of anywhere. I might go ahead and try today just to say I can do it and send in a DQ.
