With coffee and writing implements at hand, I can determine the shape of today.
I tend to write in the morning. After morning coffee and writing comes whatever the day holds...work, more writing, family time, reading, maybe even some gaming. It just depends...but writing first, always. And once I start writing, I get an idea not only of what I'm writing about, but how the rest of my day will go. Hence, the shape of today.

The Five-minute challenge!


Can I post something meaningful in the five minutes I have to spare before I have to take off for work? I think I can.

I'm ruminating on the "perpetuation" of ideas this morning. It comes from a Teamspeak conversation I was having with my guildmates some months back. We were discussing our favorite coffees, and I said that no matter how many fancy coffee-brewing methods are invented, there are none that come close to a good old stainless steel percolator, which is what I grew up with.

A young guildmate responded with, "What's that? Perpetuate?" The ensuing laughter has arisen in my mind in the time since, every time I pour a cup from the percolator. And because my ideas for stories often "percolate" in my mind like coffee before I do anything with them, it seems appropriate that I "perpetuate" them as well as "percolate" them.

There! Five minutes down, and I've got a little something to post. Must make a habit of this.
