Writing and Playing (continued…)

So, you're probably wondering how I can still find time to write now that I have World of Warcraft. (Those who aren't wondering when I'll shut up.)

Now, I know I gave you a link to free Anarchy Online. I did play that for a couple of days but, like I said, I couldn't compare to WoW. If AO was ice cream, WoW is Ben & Jerry's! And if I was going to play a game like that, I might as well play a good one.

So, I got WoW over the weekend and played and played and, well, you get it. In the midst of that, though, there are so many other things to do. House work. Time with Vicky. Sleeping. Eating. There just aren't enough hours in the day!!

But I'm happy to announce that I hit the 70,000 word mark this morning! As I look towards the end, I think I have just two more chapters after the one I'm presently on. That should put me slightly over 80,000 words, as I'd hoped. Then, after a break, will come the real work. "The Virtue of Reason", the indictment against the Vampire Society - and easily the hardest thing I've ever had to write. Who the hell do I think I am, anyway?

Thankfully, though, I have WoW to bring me back down to earth and put me in my place - still just a guy who plays video games.

I bought WoW in December and spent many, many hours playing it...and I still love it. This is probably the best game out there right now. Sorry to sound like a swooning fan, but I'm always happy to see another gamer in town.
