When I am working on a writing project, many other things suddenly seem very fun. It's a thing.

What is more fun than working on your WIP? I'll start:

Writing forum posts is more fun than working on my WIP.

Mystery Manor (game I play on Kindle Fire). Watching cycling races. Words With Friends. The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Wait, I haven't caught up on The Voice yet, have I?

Today? Reading, playing on the internet, buying shoes, puttering around the kitchen... All more fun than my WIP, which has hit a temporary lull. :) (I wrote like a fiend every day for more than a week leading up to this, so I was due for a slowdown... I tend to write in fits and spurts.)

More fun than working on my WIP? Working on a new story! Or reading a good book. Working on my WIP is pretty darn satisfying though.

The exact centre of all of existence
I've been known to clean the entire house when I can't be bothered writing but want to be productive.

Fortunately, I'm usually reasonably excited about my WIPs. Once I've made up my mind to write, I write - usually. A couple of days ago, however, I wound up writing one sentence (which I later deleted) then giving up and playing a video game.

Posting on forums, drinking plonk, eating extra-cheddar Goldfish, and painting nails. Yanno, while I'm getting warmed up to work on my WIP.

On good days: Nothing's more fun.

On bad days: Hugging a porcupine while swimming through a pool of jellyfish, accompanied by a medly of hip-hop tunes performed by a third-grade kazoo orchestra.

Knitting, crocheting, cross stitching, walking my dog, running, working out, cleaning, watching TV... the list goes on. Hoping I can focus properly in April.

Today? Sleeping would be a lot more fun.

Heck, honestly I wish I had the energy to write but I am getting over a kidney infection and am still fatigued.
