Me - Sorta
Lisa's giving me crap for being what she calls a two-posts-per-week blogger. Yeah, whatever. And here I thought I was saving you all from reading about my frustrations with the WIP.
What have I been doing? Reading. Finished Nora's Vamp trilogy - it's a bloody one, so I'm warning anyone who's thinking of reading it. I actually liked it regardless, but then I like most of her stuff (there are some exceptions) and bloody doesn't necessarily bother me. (I loved Divine Evil and that was about a satanic cult, so go figure.) Right now I'm reading Alice Sharpe's My Sister, Myself and Duplicate Daughter. I have to have these finished before November 28th. Why???? Well, duh...Cindy Gerard's latest bodyguard book is coming out that day - Under The Wire. I'm gearing up for that one.
How's the writing? Don't ask. I finally - FINALLY - got motivated to get working and what happens? Everyone in my house falls sick with some nasty bug. I'm playing nursemaid, which means the writing's getting little attention. I'm just crossing my fingers I don't catch whatever the rest of the petrie dishes are carrying. Odds are I'll get it right over - um, yeah - Thanksgiving.
Oh, yeah, and my kids are home all week next week - conferences and then the holiday break. I swear, teachers don't work in the month of November! (My how the tides have turned. I used to be a teacher, so I can get away with making this comment. LOL) And we all know what that means, right? Yup, even less time to write.
See why I only post twice a week?!

Don't rip out your hair...you've got a stressful time going. :-( Even so, I still want more than 2 a week. :P It's cuz we wuvs wu. How did the Beavs do today? We got stomped. I think we're just trying to lull the Beavs into a false sense of security for next week.
Take care of yourself. Don't breathe around your family! I'll ignore the comment about teachers not working in November, but ONLY because you used to teach. :)~
Hopefully the crud will skip you or your body is so healthy from all that spinning you won't catch it!
I know the feeling about finally getting into the groove of writing and something happens to keep you from the keyboard. That's me, this past week I finally had a break through on mine and I have a busy Monday and Tuesday and company the rest of the week, so nothing will get written this coming week.
Hang in there!
Aw, ain't you sweet, Lisa?
THE BEAVS WON!!! (darn, sorry about them ducks. Hee Hee). Next week's the big one. (Gonna have to flick you crap all week about it, you do know that, right?)
LOL, Christine. I used to HATE Nov. when I was teaching. While days off from kids are always good, I loathed conferences. (Still do, and now I'm on the other side.)
Thanks, Paty. Fingers crossed here.
Hope you're able to get a little writing in amidst all the chaos.
Hope everyone is feeling better at your house, Elisabeth! :)
I hope you didn't catch the crud, and that everyone's better now. Not only kids are off, but husbands are too. That messes up my writing.
I only write one or two blogs a week on my personal blog too. You're not alonge.
