Я прошу его об организации.
Ты просишь её о Американской революции.
Он просит меня о своих докуменах.
Мы просим их о генерале.
Вы просите их о карте.

That's the day before yesterday's retyped, now more of the same, for great practice of prepositional case endings!

Я прошу капитана об революции.
Ты просишь Эрика о своей семье.
Ренард просит своей канарейки об информации.
Эрик просит Адалинд о своего брате.
Мы просим авторов о своих книги.
Вы просите меня о нас информации.

... I got nothing, my brain is going in ten different directions, and I need to get back to work. At least there was practice!

Also what the freaking frak is the difference between the various 'to ask' verbs, спросить and вопросить? Silly dictionary.


One of these days I will stop freaking out when people with little blue check-marks next to their names tweet me back. Or even people without them who I find awesome and on some bizarre higher plane than me. Today is not that day. As always, tomorrow's not looking good for it either.

I should have done a statement of intent this morning, but as it turns out there is a high chance of no time to sit down and write, so today during the day is for the short story submission and for the serial thing I'm working on. That seriously needs an overall title and some kind of titling theme. And not more late-in-the-run things, and endings. Because that's all that was coming in yesterday, late-in-the-run things and endings, brain, shape the fuck up and work on what you're supposed to.

I seriously don't even know what I'm doing anymore. My focus today is shot. Not sure why.

Right. Those two things during the day, and when I get home first turning up the soil in the raised beds and then dinner, which should be easy, it's just stir fry, and then White Lightning for a while. At least it's Friday. I like a Friday. And no Grimm tonight means reposting on Twitter the link to the episode, whatever it turns out to be (I think I know what it is, that Mia episode) and then fucking around with domestic stuff and other writing projects all over the weekend. Yeah, I can do this. I swear.

Some days I wonder about my ability to schedule myself on projects and things, and how the fuck I keep this many balls in the air at any given time. I really wonder.

Ренард просит своей канарейки об информации. -> I think that should be accusative, yes? (If not, ignore, but.) свою канарейку

Мы просим авторов о своих книги. -> Just for clarity, whose books? As it is, the 'we' would go with the "своих" and would result in 'our' books.

I think вопросить is more... archaic and rarely used. Спросить would be the one I'd go with. Or попросить.

*curls up with you* So this week is finally going to end. FINALLY.

Noted! No, that second one's right then, because I have consulting/mentoring authors on the brain right now. And then if it was ... mm. Like, asking JMS about his comic books it would be его книги?

Mmmmokay. That makes sense, then! And YES. Thank god.

... also I think о своих книгах (plural prep, not singular). But, *nods* hence verifying. It would be the rarer combo, but not impossible.

его книгах. Их for plural authors.
