A Day Without Writing...

Is not much of a day at all! Last night I really accomplished next to nothing, other than a few minor revisions on chapter 8 and 9. I spent most of my evening finishing up a special wedding project for Sara, who is getting married this Saturday and I also watched So You Think You Can Dance-awesome.

I feel SO wierd today, unsettled and just ehhh. I seriously cannot wait to come home and finish writing chapter 10!! Maybe even get through chapter 11, that would cheer me up! It's almost like the story is inside me and I have to-absolutely HAVE to write it out or I'll go insane. I'm a little nervous about chapter 10. The events in it were supposed to take place in chapter 9, but things just became a little more involved and I hit my chapter average of 22 pages-also I got to a moment that just had that (sigh...) end of chapter feeling of perfection. The same thing happened to me in chapter 7 and 8-they were one chapter that split into 2. Which is fine-this isn't really me going off track from my outline or plot, but more like discovering there is more and more to the story I'd already written.

Anyway, few more hours at work and then...WRITE! WRITE! WRITE! Or Bust-literally!!!

    I was surfing around on a few different blogs and found you.

    Great blog you have here, and congrats to your friend who is getting married. I remember her from the conference too.

  3. Not sure yet. Are you?

    This is turning out to be a really busy summer for me, but I would love to squeeze in another conference.

  4. Yeah I think so-I love the conferences-you get to meet so many people! I wish I could go to LA but I'd have to be a paid writer to afford that one.
