Hi Kez,
Think I’m on the mend from the fainting now. Thankfully!

SBW - I’ve only started fainting since my first child was born. Thankfully it doesn’t happen too often although it’s not too bad a feeling - providing you don’t hit something on the way down. Quite peaceful really.

frogdancer - yeah that really helps. LOL. Believe me there are NO WORDS when I faint. Yeah, didn’t expect all this writing to do my head in this badly!!!!! Now, you’re not trying to put me off here are you? Can just see you cackling there in the background cos you’re waaaayyyy ahead of me in words. But ha ha, I don’t have any interviews to do.

Cheer up Lightening!
Just put your keyboard on the ground, make sure you faint next to it, and then when you come to you’re already in position to document it. You might get another 500 words.

(Does that help?)

Look after yourself. Doing the novel is not worth it if it’s doing your head in and making you get whatever it was that the doctor said you had. (That’s right… blame it on the book.)

Sorry to hear about your fainting. I fainted only once and it was very strange. Please, take it easy and let your body rest and heal.

As for funny, I'm writing hundreds of words only to set up one funny line...and it's not working. Yet, I keep doing it, probably because I have no plot yet.

You definitely can type! I'm amazed at what the amount you are able to post. I enjoy what you write.

Take care of yourself,

SBW

Lisa - do you mean my blogroll? I’ll have a look. Thanks. I did have some trouble with it when I was setting it up.

Lisa - you had double physics and double chem on the same day? Ouch! I never took physics cos they told me it was related to maths! So I stuck with chem, biol and 1 maths the way through (plus humanities subjects). That was more than enough for me!

Precious - I’m not sure I even know what black humour is! I’ve figured out the problem with my novel though. I need to make my main character lighten up a little. I’m very good at taking the mick out of myself but don’t always get *other* humour. It’s not so funny if my main character doesn’t find her antics amusing….

Katie - thanks for your kind thoughts.

btw - I visited your 2nd blog yesterday and found a couple of the blog links didn’t work. Can’t remember which ones they were which isn’t helpful I know but thought I’d mention it now.

L, you & I took typing for precisely the same reason. I had “office studies” sandwiched between two double periods - the first was Physics, the second was chemistry. What was I thinking? While I can touch type and thank my lucky stars for it, I cannot remember precisely what the study of physics involves, and I have not remembered a single chemical equation or whatever it is you call them! I do hope you feel much better very soon. How inconvenient to be ill when you’ve got so much work to do! xx

I hope you feel better soon - fainting is never good fun. I’m also a touch typer and I love it - I used to charge people money for me to type up their assignments in primary and high school!

I’m going to check out your other blog - good luck with the whole NaPloMo thingy!
