I'm fading too. But I'm fighting it. BECAUSE THIS BOOK MUST BE FINISHED SOON.

Also, if you guys ever need a brutal but totally fabulous beta, hit up Emilia (peachiemonkey.) She's saving my sorry arse right now.

Ohhhhhhhhh.... brutal = awesome in my book! I will possibly stalk her at length to rip my little WIP to shreds.

I'm taking a momentary break from editing. My Dad turned on his spiffy BlueRay Wizard of Oz so I had to watch that with the girlies. Fun times. Now I must get back. I feel your pain. BOOK MUST BE FINISHED SOON!

I'm here....sorta....lol. Like Houndie, I'm fading fast!

I just finished my Road to Damascus trailer...I've got some tweaking, but I'll post the link real quick.

Oooh, I like it Krista!
What is that music? I'm pretty sure I've heard it before, but can't place it anywhere. It's beautiful though!

Aw, huggles, thanks!!

It's Chevaliers De Sangreal from Davinci Code. I searched and searched my classical and soundtrack folder, and then I was like, "YESS!"

ETA: After watching it tons of times, I never caught I'd misspelled "fifty" as "fify" with the font. Snort. I just took it off to edit it! LOL

Ahh! That's why it sounded familiar!
I used to work at a movie theater during the time that it had come out. When I had to clean theaters, the music was always playing, and I remember loving it!

Rebecca_Rogers · Dec 31, 2009

I only work a half day today. THANK GOD. I might not make it. :/

Kathleen42 · Dec 31, 2009

Heading off to catch the seven hour bus home (why the bus back is longer, I have no clue). Have a happy New Years girls!

fairy86 · Dec 31, 2009

Hi everyone!

Working on revisions already this morning. Ugh.

houndrat · Dec 31, 2009

Yay Steph!

June, tell me when you put it back up, so I can look.

Ugh--hoping hubs will be home soon so I can work on da novel. I had dreams about the ending last night.

fairy86 · Dec 31, 2009

Hound, I've been obsessing over 2 paragraphs for awhile.

Yep, it's played at the end when Langdon realizes Mary is at the Lourve and goes to kneel before...

I downloaded most of The Davinci Code soundtrack. Hans Zimmer is another one of my soundtrack men!!

Speaking of obsessing, I think I'll head downstairs and work on RTD from 11 to 12. I need to get another chunk out to my beta readers!!

Be back later, gators!

*stumbles into thread*

Hey guys!

I'm on vacay and currently editing editing editing.

Well, that and trying to get a hold of my life again. *chases after life*

Red.Ink.Rain · Dec 31, 2009

Join the club, Race! *edit edit edit*

Rebecca_Rogers · Dec 31, 2009

I'm about to join that club too. Heading home in 10 minutes and I need to finish edits on SM today. Well, just the line crits. I'll work on plot and narrative later. ^.^

herbchick · Dec 31, 2009

I'm editing and not even finished. I hate info dumping and trying to fix that. :Headbang:

I've been reading The Giver to my oldest and it is similar in some ways to my world, the premise not the details. I think I have a Utopian/Dystopian. *confused*

Becca, you should have crits from me soon. I'm alternating between revisions and reading.

Psst, Becca's book is made of awesome.

Afternoon/Morning!

In re: to beta readers, brutal is best. When I'm ready for one, that's what I need. Fo' sho'.

I'm excited!! I need more edits added to the mix.

Red.Ink.Rain · Dec 31, 2009

I've been srsly depressed lately and haven't been on. I stopped reading and writing. It sucks. But I'm slowly coming back. And I'll beta read for you this weekend. Sorry I haven't gotten to it sooner.
