Tea.

[snitchnipped]

I drink too much of it. I drink about 2-3 pots a day. That cannot be good. Thankfully, I've cut down on the caffeinated sorts, but still... I'm tired of running to the bathroom all the time.

OK, things I really need to sit and think long about (and probably write up reference material to build from) before I can really continue any further on my Big Bang WIP:

1. Archenland Geography. Villages, landscape, and scale. Just... all of it.
2. An OC, his name, and his function in the story. He needs to be in there, but am not sure how to use him yet. Hmmm.
3. Profiles on ALL the Lords of Archenland. I already have a good head start, I just need to organize it all and add on to what I have.
4.  Elephant Names. Why is naming such a chore? I need to come up with at least three more, and it took forever just to decide on one!
5. Bird Name. I just need one. Well, more, eventually, but am happy to take suggestions for the main one. Anyone? I think it's a raven, the sex matters not.

Things I'm learning so far:

• It's ten time easier to write males than females. I have no idea why.
• It's fifty times easier to write characters with a drink in their hand. Why is my "go to" to have them boozing it up?
• It's a hundred times easier to not write in any order at all. The stuff comes out when it wants to and I shouldn't fight it.

I NEED A BIRD NAME. HELP.

Oh good, it's not just me. I'm starting to think I could drink a glass of hot water and it'd come out perfectly brewed at the other end...
