There was a period when I thought I was going to have to go get a job in order to have something to do other than work on the novel.

The past two weeks I've had good luck with the technique of saying to myself, "If you write 500 words of the novel, then as a reward you can write some slash." A pretty neat trick, since before that I was working on neither the novel nor the slash, but instead spending most of my time playing "Alchemy."

Oh, and I leave the house and leave the laptop behind, because it's a big box of procrastination. So now I'm back to writing longhand in a little spiral notebook.
