Dead Isle, Chapter Thirteen is posted. Lucky thirteen. :D

I just ran down some gossip for Awkward Coworker whilst fixing myself a cuppa, resulting in:

Sam: So that's the story.
Awkward Coworker: Thank you!
Sam: No problem. It was an opportunity to get tea.
(beat)
Awkward Coworker: An opportunitea?
Sam: Thank you for not making me say it.

Not that we're not allowed to go get tea or anything, but people are so much more ready to confess information in a kitchen than at their cubicle.

I feel a bit disingenuous about my work situation sometimes. I tend to take longer than necessary to get certain tasks done. I still get them done well ahead of deadline and I do them to the best of my ability, I just don't...always turn them in right away, or announce that I'm done with them. Thus maintaining not only a life-work balance but squirrelling away time to write.

Fortunately two of my three Holy Shit Writing projects are now essentially complete, so it's all Dead Isle, and maybe once that's done I can get back to Exquisite and Tunnel and uh. That fanfic I'm definitely not writing about the people who live in my Nintendo.

Talking of, what's a good Mario game for the Wii? I feel adrift without Mario. I should probably pick up whatever new Legend of Zelda game is out too, I think I broke Twilight Princess. Not the disc, the actual game. I've gone over multiple walkthroughs, and I can't do what they say I should do next, physically, within the game. That bit just doesn't show up.

But if you can't beat the game, playing it to an irreconcilable stopping point is pretty good, I guess.
