Firstly, I'm in the process of replying to your previous comment. You brought up reeeeeeally cool issues and I just haven't had a coherent thought in the past three days, but the response is trickling out.
Now, this issue. I get the writing urge, too, absolutely. And I've been in that zone where you barely even have to think about the story or what's next or what needs to happen because it just flows out of you. But this happens extremely rarely, and I read the LJs of other writers, several of whom have many works in progress and speak of them casually, like oh, yeah, working on this, hope to get x amount written tonight if work isn't too stressful or whatever. Like it's all there in their heads, just waiting for them to tap back into it. It makes me livid with jealousy, too.
Their secret *will* be ours. Because damn, that extra time of which you speak? Yeah. We'd like it here, too.
