4000 words. Went insane and decided to do 100k instead of 50k for Nano this year. We'll see what happens.

Well, I didn't have internet last week, just got it back on Thursday. Have not blogged at all. :(

But I did send Vampire Baron out to 3 betas so far. :) Huge step for me. I've had very little beta'd that I actually went back and finished working on. I know this book is worth finishing, so. :)

I'm editing the 4th book I said I had to edit this year...Ive edited 17,293 so far.

Editing continues, only 536 that's left and 100 pages to go. Blogged. Made a pitch for a magazine, the editor is interested. We'll see what happens.

I came up with an ending to my book. "And they live-"
I really tried not to quote LOTR, but every time I think the though 'I have an ending' It turns into Bilbo saying it and...
yeah. No writing, but plotting for Nano went really well. Can't wait!

1000 words, after I had deleted about the same amount because the scene wasn't working. *sigh*

Editing is so slow...

Coming in only second at 11:13 p.m. Now I feel lame.

Edited Helen until my deadline last Sunday then begged for a few more days which she gave, and still wasn't remotely done by Thursday night when I had to put the book to bed.

I realized I had a story I told twice in the course of the book, so that had to go. So today I wrote the new piece to fit into the book, but I still need to add transition. --Also I blogged and received a notice requesting I consider submitting for a web page. Will have to work on that this weekend. (It's paid). --Sherry

I haven't reported in a while--my bad. My mom was in the hospital but I did manage to do some writerly stuff.

Did get a hold of volunteer attorneys for the arts on my plagiarism/copyright infringement problem. Have to send them some info. Hopefully they can help in some way.

I'm finally doing it... a blog. Been fighting with wordpress themes. Once I found one where I can edit the code more to my liking it went easier. Still setting it up, so not ready to go live yet. I write a lot so I have stuff to put up there so I don't start with just one post.

Debating NaNoWriMo for some go with the flow stress release writing.
