Awesome Monday, Meh Tuesday

The bad thing about having an awesome day, is that the next one will probably be pretty crappy. Which is exactly what is happening to me today. I had a great day yesterday. I didn't get too much writing stuff done, but I did go through the Word doc and changed something that will…

Rain, rain, go away...

Really, go away.  It's been raining all this week, and it totally sucks! I'm so over it. I have to wear my raincoat every single day and it's cold, too. We're supposed to have moved past the cold, shitty weather. O_o <--- I took this photo this morning, during my d…

Enough with the rain, I reckon!

Seriously. It's now Thursday, and the rain hit on Sunday afternoon. What does that add up to? Too many rainy days . In some cases, it happened to be endless rain. :( Looks like it's not raining right now, but it's still very dark out there. I've said this before: …

'Twas a dark and dreary day...

But this gorgeous picture of my cat, Loki, should brighten things up. :) Seriously, isn't it beautiful? My daughter took it. We surprised her last month and gave her a digital camera for her 11th birthday, and she loves it. She takes heaps of excellent photos, but most of them ha…

I skipped a day!

But there was a good reason. Really, there was... As soon as hubby left for work yesterday morning, I got stuck into what I had left of the Sierra Fox #2 second draft--which was 46 pages--and spent every moment I had during the day on it, too. And... I actually finished it. Yay! Th…

TGIF!

Yeah. I'm kinda glad it's the end of the week. I've had another very productive week. As of this morning, I've reached page 155/229 in my Sierra Fox #2 second draft. Yay! That actually gets me very close to my Tuesday page goal (which is page 161), so I'm actuall…

Can't wait to watch this:

It's beginning to feel a lot like summer...

Yeah. We've had some pretty hot days the last few weeks. I love it. I'm so ready to leave behind the cold and dreary winter we had this year. Bring on the sunshine! So. I've been getting stuck into the second draft of Sierra Fox #2 this week. As of this morning, I hit pa…

Welcome, to yet another week...

Firstly, let me start by saying that on Friday I did manage to meet my goals. I got the final round of edits for RELENTLESS done and emailed about an hour before hubby was due to get home. So, yay! It meant that I started the weekend with a sigh of relief, because I managed to get …

Good morning!

How are you today? I'm good, but still swamped with work. lol. Yesterday ended up being very productive! I actually got to the end of the story before hubby got home and we headed out to do some grocery shopping. Yay. The word count ended up rising a bit--to 50,697--and the …

Still moving along...

Yeah, the revision's going well. But first, how awesome is this cat ? Seriously. Wow! Anyway. Yesterday's chunk o' revision got me to page 70/117, and I was aiming for 50/117. So, cool! It turned out to be a super productive day. I swear, the word count kept going up and …

The revision continues...

I spent most of the day revising yesterday, and managed to get 30/117 pages revised. Not a bad start. I found a bit of repetition, deleted some things that didn't add anything to the story, moved stuff around, have already strengthened a bunch of things, and even managed to cut about…

The busy never ends...

Yeah, that's right. Which is why I haven't blogged for days! :( Around this time last week, I decided that I was going to spend the week mostly brainstorming, reading, planning, and getting ready for this week's revision of Recast #3 . It was going to be my breather week …

OMGosh, it's the middle of the week already!

Have I mentioned how much I love this show, lately?? Well, I do. I absolutely love everything about it. And after this week's Shane incident, I'm lovin' it even more. One of my favourite things about zombie books/shows/movies is how human nature is affected by a zombie apocal…
