This morning's before-work activity on my WIP* focused on some necessary background research, and began with a trip to the Chicago Public Library over the weekend. I need to be more familiar with the scientific possibility of the topic of my WIP, so I don't end up looking like an idiot or (worse) an amateur.
And yes, I'm aware of the danger research can present for writers—which is to be an attractive distraction from the writing itself. I promise both you and myself not to let that happen.
BTW, Dad, the Lowe's gift card you gave us for Christmas has been put to good use: our gas-powered lawn mower was dying a slow and painful death, so we bought me a new toy yesterday—an electric lawn mower. Thanks!
