[NTGC] Conversations

Here's my first attempt at getting back into that writing thing. I said I would write scenes, so here are some scenes - be warned that the result isn't particularly cohesive.

Title: Conversations
Characters: Drannor, Nexus
Word Count: ~1000
Summary: Some of the first few interactions between Nexus, the newly intiated Eternal Blade, and its Blade Guide, Drannor.
Notes: [insanejournal.com profile] ratzeo supplied Drannor's dialogue and responses.

Yes, I'm *the* Drannor. )

Staying accountable

I'm trying to figure out how to get back into my New Year's goals, and, well, I've decided to try making more goals. Last year (prior to the new job), I got pretty comfortable making daily or weekly to-do lists, and that generally kept me on track with what I wanted to do.

Because I'm still feeling my way around regarding the levels of time, energy, and skill I can call upon, I don't want to make the goals to constricting, so I'm organizing them by category. Each category is something I want to engage in on a (nearly) daily basis, though the exact activity can vary. So I figure if I just set the goal of "one from each category" every day, that should guide me toward spending my time the way I want to, without bringing in an excessive level of obligation.

It's also a way of keeping track of how I spend my time. That's why I'm including activities like spending time with [insanejournal.com profile] ratzeo - these aren't "tasks" that I need to have "done," but they're worthwhile things I am happy to spend my time on, so I want to acknowledge that.

More details below, probably tl;dr )
