Write what you know?

So ... for the latest round of the Tonks story at CoS, I just finished a scene in which Tonks finally gets to meet some characters who had previously only been talked about by other people. Three and a half thousand words of it. Six and a half pages of A4.

Set in a bloody beauty parlour.

Right.

Like my knowledge of such things extends beyond watching Cutting It. It seemed like a good idea at the time ...

I'm really setting myself up for a fall here, aren't I? :)

Two years and counting on my hair (though I may be changing that soon - eek!) and yeah, I'd say Cutting It is about it for my knowledge too. So no worries about nitpickery from me either...;)

Two years? Five? Oy. I prefer my hair longish, but I can't really imagine letting it grow that long (it starts to feel annoyingly heavy when it gets to about collar length).

Then again, I tend to let my little fingernails grow and grow until they actually break ... (As a teenager, and even later, I grew them all long, but after doing a history exam where fast scribbling meant that a long thumbnail started digging holes in my index finger, I finally gave up on that. I probably kept the long nails just to annoy people who told me to get them cut ...)

Er, yes, I am rather odd at times. :)

Mine is about mid-back-length, and has never shown the slightest sign of wanting to grow longer. I figure it's found its natural length, and who am I to argue with it?
