Only if they have "WRITER" blazoned on them.

I'm here.
Quiet day. Not feeling the urge to write. Just seem to have lost my mojo. ![]() My expenses went in to the bank account so I hit the supermarket. Family night tonight so chicken wings in bbq sauce, potato salad, chips and guacamole, breaded mushrooms and dip and, if we have room, tiramisu (which is not homemade).

{{{Fire}}} It'll come back. Maybe it'll be good to take a You day.
And your dinner sounds yummy. I don't what we'll do tonight. Nothing so elaborate and scrumptious as what you have planned. *has a sad*

*waves* Saturdays are always busy here. Husband and younger son are refereeing, College Boy plus his GF's mom and younger sis did the Ride for Rosw3ll today--a 10-, 20-, or 30-mile bike jaunt to raise money for the local cancer hospital. Grogeous day here too. Then they came back here for food, and are now at CB's apartment dropping off dishes and lamps and stuff.
I cooked and weeded and am finally sitting down to write some. Worked on altering the chameleon's backstory last night. fire, when I don't have creative mojo, I often put the time into research. Maybe that'll help? I made Killer Brownies for The Agent, because he is awesome. The boys (all 3 of them) whimpered when they saw me making them. I promised that hapf the batch is for them.

{{Fire}}
and Lily, that's a good suggestion for mojo-less days. DD arrives on Friday for a 2 week visit, so I'm currently in a cleaning/purge frenzy. Including stuff I haven't looked at since we moved in 8 years ago

Partial to a publisher just turned into a full. Within an hour. On a Saturday.
No, I'm not dancing, but at least someone thought it wasn't crap.

Thanks, my dears. If nothing else, it has restored my confidence some.
It's a sweet little press/ePub from what I've read.

Good luck, Dragon!
Guys, if any of you follow the lovely Dragonfly on FB, she's posting her wedding photos. They're absolutely lovely and she looks a million dollars.

Morning Purgs!
Mmmm food talk. I need to go make breakfast. I'm sending mojo-inducing enthusiasm to Fire, because I need the rest of that book. Fingers crossed, Dragon. Rep me? Not much here. MS needs a read-through so I can kick it out to people hoping they won't laugh at me and since I actually got up in time today, I might as well take a stab at that.
