Sven - It’s Wednesday and here’s my update. Does editing and actually losing word count, count in the 70 Days of Sweat? I have two documents going, one is the current MS and the second is the document with all of the cuts meant for reinsertion later… or not. I added approximately 3000 words to the WIP, but cut about 1200 that will come back later.
I got feedback from a contest that the WIP was entered into and it is positive and constructive. I agree that I need to make a few changes so that is what I am doing. It will definitely make the rest flow better. I now know why I was having such a hard time figuring out the next part! Unbiased opinion in some cases is a good thing. Sometimes it can be crushing, but in this case, it isn’t. Which is good. My ego would have suffered. J
Have you ever had one of those days where you just wanted to take a nap and nothing in the world would work to let you? This is my fate today. I took the day off because I was attending my daughter’s choir camp concert and then taking her home. My nephew was to be in this camp with her, but a death in the family prevented that. So, this afternoon I took him to register for the second session of the camp my daughter just left. That means three additional days of driving to TCU each morning and evening. Sunday he and my son will fly to Amarillo. Wow. 6 whole days without him around. Doesn’t really matter though, I have to go to Washington, DC, on Monday anyway. My daughter gets to find a place to bunk for a few days.
I’m still recovering from my time at Nationals and it isn’t going very well. I still have the clogged ears, etc. A visit to the doctor may be necessary before I get on a plane. Been there, done that, and it isn’t pretty! I must get back to this challenge thing.
Happy Writing.
