Expecting More

Revising is a slow go. After notes form my agent, I began reworking Stripped. He warned me it was a major rewrite, but I let it percolate until I had most of the points figured out in my head...but now I at the point in the book where he had the most issues...and it is a slow go.

Why? Lots of reasons. Part of my mind is on the revisions I got on Come For Dinner. I may have to lose Elvis. Egad. Part of me hates pulling good scenes. (I know, that I must get over.) There's the Romance Diva's Q&A I'm organizing, the four books I'm reading, trying to decide if I can afford to go to a conference this summer. Oh, and I do have a life outside work. BabyBoy had an hour long tantrum tonight, my brother's getting married and I have no idea what size strappless dress to buy for my abundant boobage, what kind of digital camera to buy now that mine is officially kaput, I have two short stories I need to find places to submit (so as not to be one of those writers who deservess to starve), put together a book basket for the romance readers luncheon next weekend, I'm antsy about a local short story contest that announces tomorrow, trying to figure out childcare for BigBoy's kindergarten walk-through day so we don't have to do it with toddler in tow, we're out of milk....phew. Sorry about the tension puke.

Tomorrow is another day! Maybe even THE day to finish the Stripped edits. I need a good chunk of time.

That's funny cos I have a Fuji too and I love it. Easy to use, great quality, etc.

Sounds like you're super busy! Good luck with everything on your plate, which is a very full plate!
