Why am I feeling depressed, now that Janet Reid announced that she's made the first cut in the contest (91 of the original 410 entries are going to the second round)? She hasn't told anyone if they've made it. She's only going to announce the finalists, which will be the third or fourth round.
Remind me this is an odd-numbered day. Or perhaps, being April 1st, the normal rules don't apply.
I've been sitting here, cutting unnecessary words out of book three. For some reason, I write books initially in the 115,000 word range. To use a cliche, I realize I may be rearranging the Titanic's deck chairs. At least I'm keeping busy.
Maybe this work will teach me, for the next book, to avoid all my unnecessary words. I also have a great list, in case I ever have to pad my word count
Oh, and way to go, Peggy!
