Spent this mornign doing some clean up over in my writing journal, posting an old short segment for Pieces, a summary of what has happened in the pevious 24 sections (since, you know, it has been a year since I last did anything with the story :p), and after a nap and a few chapters of a new library book on pirates (which is really quite good even if the end note format is exceedingly bizarre, stupd Harcourt), The Republic of Pirates by Colin Woodard. I reccommend to any of the pirate history liking people on my f-list, as it is interesting, relative accurate so far as I can tell, and easy to read. yay for more pirate historians! And I'm not just syaing that because one of the 4 people he chose to focus on is Woodes Rogers <3 (also Blackbeard, Charles Vane, and Henry Avery), or because he opens his book wth Nicholas trott, who is one of my favourite proprietary scoundrels.

And just now I posted *another* section (all new!) of Pieces, that I started last week. I'm pretty happy with it, though I'm not entirely sue I've got back into the swing of things. Daniel is hard to write for, and first person limited omniciences (I think that is right) is a tricksy PoV to start with! Anyway, writing = good. Pirates also = good! And I think Claire is coming over shortly-ish, whee! Later there will be baking, or at least baking prep!

Also, Doctor Who = good, and here is a torrent to the final ep of this series (thanks Buck and mininova!)
