(Are you noticing a trend in these titles?) I don’t know what to do with this. It’s not that I don’t like it so much as I don’t think it’s appropriate for other people to read (and some of you are asking what makes me think that’s my call to … Continue reading →
Say it isn’t so! But I should have seen it coming. His minutes have been declining all year. Something didn’t click right. I’m not as familiar with Nazr Mohammed and Jamison Brewer as perhaps I should be. As for Malik Rose, this could work out well for him as well–at … Continue reading →
I’m up to page 137 (of 335). There’s some workable stuff here, but this book has ‘issues’. Lots to be cut/revised. Of course, the challenge for me will be: What to cut; what to revise; what to keep. But isn’t it that way for all of us? I need to … Continue reading →
I’m crawling through it. I haven’t become violently ill yet, so that’s a plus. I do tend to like what I write when I’m “in the zone” and not thinking about it. I also blush to think that someone else will read some of this stuff. Oh, my! And this … Continue reading →
I wrote the two scenes, deleted another, crossed the 100k barrier and came back to finish at 99,709. I did the formatting changes last night. I was still finding continuity errors this morning. I’m updating the timeline and wordcount breakout now–looking for a more equitable way to break the book … Continue reading →

Although that *looks* like 100% up there, don’t let it fool you. I have two scenes to write, one scene to rewrite, and numerous formatting things to cross-check. If I do things right, the numbers will be close to the originally planned 100k. Only then will I report I have … Continue reading →
My physical therapist gave me homework for the weekend. Five simple exercises. Three of them *are* simple. One is challenging, and another is just plain painful. I did them today–or most of them. I did more today than I did last night. The two difficult ones are supposed to be … Continue reading →
Whew! Holly and I have been running from shortly after 6am this morning. She was working on a proposal, and I was rewriting on PBOTL. We just finished. She’s off to get something to eat–I suspect she eats more than swords and drinks more than cold water, but even with … Continue reading →
Good progress today. Got my words back plus a few. The comedy sketch will need reworking, but I got the first cut done. Thanks to RuthAnne’s Bob Newhart suggestion, I stopped at BestBuy this afternoon and picked up his double album–the one I wanted and coincidentally, the only one they … Continue reading →
