Would anyone like to join my "this is the first time I've written over 7,000 words" party? I put some Chex mix in a bowl!

Hey Moni!

Afternoon, gang Hope all is well. I'm writing and getting some good words down on my Thriller. very excited about Thrillers being the hot thing now. I'm a third done with this one and then have another one ready to write that I already did a mock query on. Hope I don't miss the boat this time around LOL Wish I could pump out ready to go first drafts. ha. don't we all?

Hi Mel

Is it bad that right now I prefer to beta read others work over dealing with my own ?

I seem to pick up on my own errors in the process of reading others work.

Congrats Yellow on the awesome wordage!!!

Sage, it's doing. NOt as much as I'd like, but, shrugs. sigh. still have a partial out and full out and i'm waiting to hear back from about 30 agents and need to send a few more out. Just getting lazy about it and prefer to work on my new WIP. You know how it is. It's a soul sucking, brain throbbing, heart wrenching roller coaster. The only thing that takes my mind off it is to move on to the next project and focus on that, so that's what I'm doing. Thanks for asking

afternoon everyone, how are things going?

Evening - I'm good.

Morning all. Hi Moni! Man, this week has been hectic. I just heard back from my editor. She enjoyed Lifesong, but I need to change a few things before we sign the contract. No problem

So of course this weekend and a part of next week will involve edits and such. How is everyone?

Hi E.S.Lark

Awesome! Still find time to enjoy the weekend though! I'm really actually becoming an "old person" by saying this: but the weather is beautiful! At least in my neck of the woods...

Nope - when the weather is nice, it's nice to be out.

Don't worry about it, Sage. It's a well-known fact that getting off work early always inspires the sincerest form of productivity and always end with chocolate and reruns of The Bachelor.

anyone about?

Hello!

hi

How are you?

Fine - you?

Has anyone seen the Hunger Games movie yet?

nope, not interested. sorry.

debating if i should. I really want to read the books and see what all the hype is about, but I still dont have the time, so not sure if i should see he movie yet.
