Preparing the Polly Frisch book in my siggy to kindleize it.

Meeting with my co-author on said book so she knows what I'm doing with it and discussing our plan or our plagiarism issue.

Two blog posts.

Oh, and stealing the banana right out from under everyone's nose. 12:01

4500 words. Finished plotting the thing, and am now starting to write. Kinda scary - feels like a long time since I wrote anything new and this is a book I've had in my head for years.

Started looking up agents and publishers, and how to write a query letter for my Fairy Tale book. This is really scary. I have no idea what I'm doing.

300 on 'Daniel Merchant'. I would have done more but I spent the entire weekend trying to learn Haggis' awesome dance moves!

Reporting in...

Been taking a break from writing to rest my wrist and my eyes. So, no words.

However, I have been reading up on a revision course I'm taking.

Bad, bad writer! I said I'd check in more often and I haven't. Bad.

My excuse is 3.5 weeks of "The Sinuses That Ate My Brain" infection. I was reduced to watching awful TV and eating my weight in salt, sugar and fat. Week two of antibiotics and I feel a few brain cells returning.

• On hold for a big bulk-writing project, which is the kind that pays the bills (last one in Jan. was about 25K words)
• Blogged on my new one - 500 words
• Blogged on my old one - 400 words
• Scored 653,478 in Bejeweled 3 Poker (just can't seem to break that 700K score!)

Feel sorry for those of you w/ wrist and tendonitis issues. I shelved my fiber art career due to tendonitis. Not fun. Get better!

You know, reg, I actually had some words this week. Prolly about 200 or so. And the thing is I would have been here first this morning, but as you know, I've just moved and the stupid computer isn't hooked up to the Internet yet. But I would have been first.

So I'll just take my nanner now.
