Watched four episodes of La Femme Nikita last night, and the writing/acting is getting considerably more solid as the show goes on. The last episode we watched had me in heart-palpitating nervous agonies over what would happen with the guest star and her relationship with Michael, so I’d say it’s all good. *happiness* *geeky happiness* :) I got out of bed this morning, pulled on a robe and some fuzzy socks, and bobbled downstairs to read Gail Dayton’s THE BARBED ROSE and Laura Resnick’s DISAPPEARING NIGHTLY. DISAPPEARING NIGHTLY was a…
good news/bad news
The good news is, the book is done! 77.3K, and I’ll probably add a bit more when I do revisions. The bad news is, the duplexer on the new printer didn’t work all that well, and skipped a page around page 80, so by the time I got done printing the first half of the manuscript, it was pretty much all buggered up. So I ended up printing the second half single-sided, and the second quarter is going to suck a lot to edit bcause I’m going to have to…

If I manage to develop the nerve, that’ll pretty much obliterate any…
flick! flick! flick your workload!
I am flicking so very very hard this morning. I have spent an egregious amount of time making my work schedule pretty. *laugh* I have spent time adding up the numbers of what I’ve got planned, to see what kind of wordcount I’m talking about, and dividing those great big numbers by numbers of reasonably-expected working days to see how many words a day I have to write to achieve those great big numbers. I have made nice tidy columns of schedules. Working Schedules, which are called Actual Schedules because…
thank heavens
I’m a few words from finishing chapter 25, and it’s pretty clear to me that chapter 26 will be the last. Then the epilogue, and I’m done. I’ll be able to finish this tomorrow. I would like to take a moment to give thanks to whatever many-tentacled deity is listening. *collapses* It has not been a hard run, as far as books go. Part of it is the small amount of down time during the writing of the book. I did the proposal last year, but I’ve written everything else…
