Email from Deirdre this morning: This morning Breic said, “Yesterday we were chasing that dog, but then he clambered away.” o.O I am suffering badly from almost-finished-itis. I have reached the point where I feel I have done enough on this book and it should be done. For some reason, it is not done. Sitting at Nook writing other things has not, for reasons that are beyond me, caused it to be done. Making bread has not caused it to be done. Making new webpage icons has not caused it…
just a fyi
I’ve got to change nameservers for my domains sometime in the next 24 or so hours (not exactly sure when it’ll go through), so this is mostly a note to tell people the site might be down for a while and nobody needs to send me email saying, “Did you know mizkit is down?” I know. :) Okay. To work now. Even later than yesterday. Let’s hope I have the same amount of productivity regardless of the late start.
very. very. frustrated.
Target points: 22 Points used: 23.5 Activity points earned/swapped: 2/1.5 WPA used/remaining: 35/35 My WW account expired in December or so, when I couldn’t get the damned WW site to accept my overseas billing address. So I’m now trying to renew it with a different credit card, one that still has a US address. This card worked perfectly yesterday when I paid for something else with it.

huh!

Go me. :) I’m 300 words short of 90K, for heaven’s sake, but I don’t think I’m going to sit down and write those 300 just for the hell of it. I’ll settle for breaking 90K tomorrow. And hopefully charging along to about 95K. I think I have about five chapters left, which would be just exactly perfectly right. Woot.…
good news, bad news
Got up late and got started writing late, but I’m moving along. 1300 or 1500 or something words so far. But I did kind of figure out that I need to go back and write in some scenes in order to set up the last few chapters of the book properly. It’s probably not more than six or ten pages total, and it’ll smooth the whole story out, but I do wish I’d thought of how to handle this earlier. Oh well. …still have other things to write on the…
