The 48-Hour Dark Experiment was just what I needed to cut the umbilical cord between me and Mother Internet.
While I was offline I:
- went to a friend's birthday bowling party and had chili fries for dinner
- had my first acupuncture session
- incorporated my first beta round notes into my to-query project (Novel #2)
Displayed is the first book I bought: The Warrior's Path (When Women Were Warriors #1). Fitting, because the first novel I ever attempted started as a short story in college about female warriors.
I had decided that the Kindle wasn't worth it, but he'd already bought one for me, aw. I'm sure I'll LOVE it once I get on the plane next week without 5 hardcovers. I'll also be bringing pages from my critique partners, so send 'em on over, ladies!
The first social network site I visited with my Kindle? Twitter.
How did your Dark Outs go? And to those who are just starting theirs - you can do it!
I got a Nook for Xmas and I love it! Especially when traveling. So nice not to carry a bunch of books around.
ReplyDeleteI see how it's going to be. Bribe me into finishing my edits with a Kindle and plane trip!
ReplyDeleteIt's working. Maybe not all five chapters, but at least the first two (and my chaps aren't short :P).
And I'm glad you are back! I MISSED you!
Also, I need to buy this book. Like, eight years ago.
ReplyDeleteOooh Kindle! Nice.
ReplyDeleteMy dark out went very well. I finished a quilt and took some naps. More importantly, I kicked my Facebook habit! Yes! Your dark out sounds more productive than mine...
Oh man...that's a good boyfriend! What a great V-day gift! :)
