A couple of weeks ago I thought I was off. I had a story like the just so stories, but with more plot -- where Yahweh and Lucifer are simply the first two archangels of eleven and Yahweh eventually blocks Lucifer's slow suborning of the others. It had a good feel, and good metaphysics, and archangels Michael beating up velociraptors but just didn't get written :(

Now I started another just so story -- How the Panther Became. It's not inspired, but (when I have time) proceeded apace.

Meme: What are the most recent five words in your custom dictionary? Pick a line of five from the middle (fudge if you want to) -- can you remember when you used them?

Last five:

squee
online
Cracus
Hulme
snarky

Middle five:

Orcs -- Can I just say "anything by Tolkien is ok?"
Hagrid -- For that matter, how much national effort must have been wasted adding Harry Potter names to dictionaries? Would we save much energy by getting someone to issue more comprehensive dictionaries? :)
leet -- Irony
Euthyphro -- Conveniently, I can google where I used this: hpost
exes -- OK, a bit non-standard
snork -- :)
Slytherin's -- OK, maybe there's a good reason not to automatically add plurals and possessives and inflected forms to the dictionary when you add a word. But you could add them to the list of suggestions if you had time to code it...
