Thirteen More

And I’m halfway through.  Yay!

Today was an odd day.  I told Hope to do something, she asked if she could watch TV after.  I was in the kitchen, and I reached to put something in the sink, looking down as I did.  There, spelled out–I swear it!–in four pieces of macaroni in a pan, was ‘TV.’

So I let her watch TV.  Not much, still, but I did let her watch.

I spent something like four hours working on one scene.  The darn thing was driving me nuts, but I think I got it.  I hope I got it.  I’ll have another bash at it when I go to put the revisions in.

What I’m doing is, if I re-write a scene a LOT, I go ahead (did I say this?) and put it in the computer.  Print it out and go over it again.  This particular scene I did THREE TIMES.  But it’s an important one, and I think it’s a lot better now.

Deep breath and move on.  As my new mentor (Holly Lisle, the lady rocks) says, a writing career is made up of books.  Not singular.  Plural.  Gotta get it good as I can, and then get it OUT.

That’s the goal.  And I’m halfway there.  Yay!

And my head hurts.  G’night, blogworld.
