My poor little baby is sick. Emma's had a runny nose for a week or so, but now it's branched out into a full-fledged cold, with a nasy cough and requisite crankiness. I wonder if it's related to the anemia. :(

I'm writing the fourth novel in my (entirely, hopelessly unpublished) fantasy series. One of my characters has undergone a subtle corruption, and is now heading over to the side opposing the heroine. It was pretty tricky to write, and I don't know if I pulled it off convincingly. It was also pretty painful; I'm fairly attached to these characters and I don't like seeing them in pain. Yet I torture them nonetheless. :P Also, I'm a little nervous that the corrupted character and his corrupter show marked similarities to Anakin and Palpatine. Well, not nervous really, because there's nothing that could come across as plagiarism. It just makes me think that if I ever do get the stuff published, and someone asks if I just so happen to be a SW fan, one of whose favorite characters is Anakin, I'll give a little smile and say, "Why, yes...how did you ever guess that?" Heh.

I'm tired. I'm probably coming down with Emma's cold. Blech.
