April Fools!

Okay, so I officially decided to participate in the April Fools writing challenge/thingy this year. I set myself a goal of 10,000 words, so that it's do-able, but I still have the chance of boosting it if I'm running a good ways ahead. So far (as of tonight) I have 1,016 on a short story titled 'Morpheus Rising'. It's in a bit of a funky style- very stream-of-consciousness, in fact it sort of reminds me of Langston Hughes' 'Not Without Laughter', mixed with the Penelope chapter of James Joyce's 'Ulysses'. Ah well, that's what I get from paying too much attention in English class. Anyways, we shall see how it turns out. I also outlined my re-write of the play "Boo!" today, but did not have a chance to actually start typing the literal dialogue out. Because of the way I outlined it, however, it should be fairly easy to write once I get the time. Anyways, I really should be getting to sleep now.
TOODLES!
