Wheeling along

I missed posting yesterday, and I'd been doing SO good, too!

Why did I miss posting? Because I had my nose to the grindstone, my shoulder to the wheel, the pedal to the metal ... I wrote 5700 words yesterday. I'd written 2200 the day before, and just a tad over 3,000 today. I'm feeling REALLY good about how Andy's story is coming along (which still needs a title). I'm hoping to be able to write THE END on it soon.

I was planning on writing more today, but then I received my final line edits for Sam's story, Personal Protection. Woohoo! I breezed through them and they're flying back through cyberspace to my editor. My grammar ROCKS! (As long as we don't count the dozen times I had characters 'hitching their shoulders' OMG I hadn't realized how often I'd done that. Another item to be added to the "things to check when editing" list.

And good news - Gizmo Guy has been working on my Mini-Mac. He finally disassembled it and put in a new 20gig hard drive and is reloading all the software onto the new drive. I may be able to use it again after all and not just as a doorstop. Woohoo, Gizmo Guy!

Oh, and take a look at this "Boyfriend pillow" someone's devised. Sort of ingenious. A grown-up version of a teddy bear. Although it's sorta creepy too - does anyone else think it's only one step away from a blow-up doll? Thanks for MG Braden for that link.

Woohoo! on the writing AND the edits. Your grammar is awesome.

Yeah on the mini Mac. That is good news.

Boyfriend Pillow - kind a creepy. Almost EW factor.
