BUT... BUT YOU DIDN'T UPDATE ABOUT THE BREAD!!!
Needless to say, there has been no bread baking, either. Although I did buy two new bread pans. THE BAKING, IT WILL HAPPEN.
But not this week.

Why does the middle of the book always suck?
Too long after the exciting beginning and too far away to look forward to the ending...
You're right. It also doesn't help that I figured out better story line for one of my characters and now I have to reedit the beginning.
I have a draft (the one I'm struggling to make a query for) that needs it's first full edit. On the write-through, I debated maiming a character at the end, but didn't because I didn't think it would help the story. Now I've decided that character (a former soldier) should start the story without a hand.
I am so annoyed at the idea of going back through scenes and removing his hand...
More tech and final dress rehearsal for my show yesterday, with all the attendant hysteria. My part is so small that none of it really affects me, but it makes it hard to focus in the dressing room. So no real writing, although I did do some beta reading.
Today is my day off, but I have to go to the grocery and this evening I'm taking my husband out to dinner as a belated birthday present. So I'm not anticipating any writing today, either.
(Nor bread baking. )
Lots of fingers crossed (broken legs?) for your show. You got my hopes up on the bread baking when you said you were going to the grocery store!
Have you heard of long rise bread? I make it more often than regular rise, because I can start it the night before, go to work, and finish it when I get home. If you want to tighten the time table, just add more yeast!
Ooo, thanks for sharing that! Personally, I love kneading and would miss the experience, but I may try this one day when I'm feeling all experiment-y.
That means I'm really down to four plot-points...
-Sees bad guy, runs away
-Goes back and fights bad guy
-Wakes up in hospital
-Four months later
