Work post: reviews, my lack of will power, and other stuff.

I neglected to read the reviews I received for Morning Ritual (except for the first two or three) so I would have something to do today while at work. Thank you to everyone who reviewed; the effort was appreciated.

I believe my favorite review, however, was the one from anonymous, who said the following:

Well-written, but the smut doesn't generate enough heat. Your approach comes across as too clinical, with not much intensity shown in either Eiri's or Shuichi's feelings during 'the act.'

Believe it or not, I'm not mentioning this so I can mock it or giggle at it. I post it because I think it is good advice and wish to know if anyone has a suggestion or an idea as to how I can go about making my smut-stories less blah and more... um... smutty. (The only thing I can think of to rhyme with 'blah' is 'rah!', which is dumb. I'm brain dead today; please don't pay my stupidity any mind.) The comments are, as always, open, so feel free to spoil me with tips, advice, or recommendations.

In other news, I went to the doctor today concerning the plague, and all is well. I was told everything checked out and told I could quit with the medication next week. Hurrah! I'm certainly not going to complain.

slyfox78 snerked at my lack of willpower, but she really should know that I possess no such thing. Why, specifically, did she snark? Because I went ahead and decided to buy myself a snazzy new messenger bag with which to shock and amaze my friends. (Or perhaps that was the magic kit I begged my parents to buy me when I was a kid. Hm. I always get those silly slogans mixed up.) Oh, and don't worry. I got it in black so as not to burn out my eyes with bright colors. Although the yellow bag did amuse me very, very much.

It should come as a surprise to none of you that my typing-of-the-vacation-work is coming along veeery slowly. I have yet to garner up the will to start typing up Dizzy (the sequel to Spin) and have only barely typed up any of Da Script for Da Comic.

Oooh. Stick girl.

Argh. Maybe it's the noisy book group in the back or maybe it's the lack of sleep, but I'm not being very intelligent -- or coherent -- today. I apologize for that.

Um. I don't think I have much else to say. This may change later, but that's how I stand (or sit) at this point of time. So there.

edit:
Mrrrr.
