Well, *that* was very productive. I sat down and pounded out a rough draft on a short story today, 4850 words, and I feel like I should go write 1100 words on TQB, but jeez. o.o Um. Let’s see. Oh. Ted made REALLY GOOD crepes for breakfast this morning. He’d never made crepes before. They were REALLY GOOD. REALLY GOOD. We put Mom’s homemade applesauce which was also REALLY GOOD and my strawberry syrup into them, and WOW. REALLY GOOD. YUM. O.O And now I wanna get out of the…
good webhosty people
Ok, that was a much less traumatic experience than I was expecting it to be. I noticed a month or so ago that I couldn’t tell if my webhosting people were charging me, and I kept forgetting to contact them about it. They noticed it yesterday, and contacted me.

Oh. I wanted to say…

I have at least one friend who is a multi-published, best-selling author. The writers I know run the gamut. And I think it is just so incredibly cool that I know all of you. That I get to be…
I actually got up at a fairly reasonable hour (er, okay, at what point in my life did SIX FIFTEEN IN THE MORNING become a REASONABLE HOUR?) and got not only my 1100 words written, but also another 450 after that, which caught me up to yesterday’s writing. I’m not generally trying to make up days if I miss one or fall short, but I really wanted to round out the 850ish I wrote yesterday, so I’m pleased about that. There’s character development and back history going on in the…
