I totally get the deadline thing. I hate them, but they are the reason things get done.

I have a manuscript due in spring...that would be a deadline of sorts, thing is, it's not enough of one. Spring could be March...or April, or even May. If I want to get technical, spring could be up until June 20th.

So, I empathize greatly.

Not that this is making me write any faster, mind you. ::g::
