I am relieved to report that revisions are back on track and underway once again. Today, I figured out a pretty slick way to take care of...well, two birds, with one stone. THAT was fun, and now I have a pretty smug sense of accomplishment going. ; )

Also, I am probably completely loco, but I'm toying with the idea of participating in NaNoWriMo. Anyone out there do it? Any words of en/discouragement? Wisdom? Advice?

My desk looks like a stationery store vomited its contents, but I am so pleased with my progress that I just don't care!

After this pass, I'll be looking for readers...

(Looking at you,

triciasullivan and

reneesweet. You've been warned. ; )

NaNo's fun. Be sure you have an outline and the characters all ready to go, all the worldbuilding. Then it's go, go, go!

I like the smug look.

Glad to hear some things have settled down a bit.

Let's not tempt the Fates and say that things have settled down...let's just say that I feel better equipped, at the moment, to deal with it all. ; )

I do have my characters and the basic premise of the story ready to go; world-building is in process, but I had a sort of big leap in that arena today that made me think it might be possible for me to at least try NaNo! (I am a dyed-in-the-wool pantser: no outlines for me.)

Thanks for the tips!

At age 16, Alexis "Lex" Kelly refused her destiny as the slayer of rogue carriers of a virus that gives them access to magic and transformative powers. (Think vampires and shapeshifters, but with differences.) Now 20 years later, married with two children, she's learning that you can't just turn your back on destiny.

Duhn-duhn-DUHN!

I've never tried Nano but I don't see what harm it could do--why not?

My inbox is ready and waiting <3

My new story could...I dunno. Implode? Be Really Bad?

You're right. Like you said: spend it!

Re: CM, I have a few more small tweaks and then it will be on its way and I can work on other things guilt-free!
