RL and Writing

I am making steady progress on the new novel. With this one, I understand the idea of ‘rough draft’. I have nicknamed it ‘Next Step’ to help me keep everything organized. It currently is already at 21,367 as of yesterday.

Wayback is still with another writer being checked out. I believe she has a life, unlike me, and will take a while. At first I was all nervous about it and now I am fine. I put a snippet of Predictable World up on the forum and got some good feedback. So I know it desperately needs some editing. I have not touched Pedigree in quite a while and I need to get another chapter of Ryan’s book done and sent to him.

I recently got a book by Cameron called The Right to Write. It’s a decent book, each section is a small essay followed by an exercise at the end. Some of them are a little odd from my perspective but I understand that the generic ‘you’ is prominent in this book. I recently heard she had a third book out but I can’t remember the title.

The year to date word count is: 143,706. Not bad for a Southern blonde, huh?

In Real Life, I had the second sleep test and hated the CPAP. The mask is going to take some getting used to. I goofed up on the cable bill something awful and it may be off for a while, including the internet. I may experience withdrawals soon. Spring seemed so teasingly close and then today winter reared its white head. Temperatures are dropping like a rock and there are severe wind warnings up as well as winter weather advisories. Arrgh!
