They won't let me have a tazer. Have to wield sarcasm instead.

Hi shameless...I'm the opposite. I write full time while the kids are in school and then usually take summers "off", but this year I'm swamped! So no break.I feel for teachers...we're lucky to have great schools, but I know they put up with a lot of crap from parents. I always try to let them know they are appreciated, so sending you a pat on the back! enjoy your full time summer writing job! Looks like it's going to be successful!
Well, you have MY respect, Sandy! I was in an education major until I saw the bright light and got the heck out of it.
Working on: 1905 romance, sporadically. Playing with an idea of an illegitimate daughter of Galileo. Buffing/polishing my "you cannot sell this" book to take direct to reader via Kindle or the like. Awaiting edits on the first book of the Faith Box series...which my publisher informs me, will GO TO PRINT! Among the first for this pub, so I'm tickled pink.
Right now, I'm juggling two projects. One is an Urban Fantasy Romance that I'm working on. I haven't really written in it in a while though. I should probably do that soon. I'm also at 10K, if not a little past it. I have no idea when I'm going to finish it.
The second project is like a PNR/UF Romance thing. It was supposed to be a short story, but I'm thinking it's going to be a novelette or a small novella. I just hope I get done with it soon. This what I'm really working on right now.
And truthfully, I'm debating on what I should do with both of them. Ugh.
Oh, why an Ugh? That sounds really promising actually.
How hard or easy do you find it to switch quickly between projects? Like you're buzzing along nicely on a draft and bam you get some revisions through from your editor and have to work on them for the next few days. Do you try to at least keep on doing a little work on the draft just to stay in touch with it, or can you quite easily drop it for a week and pick it up again and continue wth the same momentum as before?
I'm getting better at it now after a couple of years practice, but it can be hard to drop something I'm really buzzing with. Usually a draft - editing I can drop and come back to much easier. I usually end up adding lunchtime into my writing schedule and at least getting a few hundred words to kep my hand in until the edits are sent back and I can go full speed ahead again on the draft.
