Monday Check In

Last week...

Writing Related:  I tweaked a few minor things in Garrett's book but didn't find anything major that jumped out at me. I sent the manuscript to my beta readers late yesterday afternoon. They'll have two weeks to go through it and send me suggestions, corrections, and such. I want to start working on the back cover copy but I have a busy week this week so I'm not sure how far I'll get with that.

What I'm Reading:  I'm reading two books right now. I'm reading The Magic of Lemon Drop Pie by Rachel Linden before I go to sleep at night. During the day I'm reading Broken Harbor by Catherine Cowles. It's a romantic suspense with a hockey player as the main male character. It's the 3rd book in Sparrow Falls series. I haven't read the first two books but I'm not feeling lost at all. While the books are part of a series I think they can also be read as stand alones.

Random Things:  It's finally warming up enough for the Lily of the Valley flowers in our yard to show tiny buds. It's supposed to be colder this week so I'm hoping it's not so cold the buds die before having a chance to bloom.

  Here's a photo of the Lily of the Valley flowers. If you look close, you can see the tiny buds.

 

What's Up Wednesday

This week...

My Current WIP (Work in Progress): Revised two more chapters last week. I'm getting closer to the mid-way point.

What I'm Reading:  I started reading Death Among the Doilies by Mollie Cox Bryan. It's the first in a new mystery series that I found by chance at my local library.

Random Thoughts:  I'm still working on the blanket I'm knitting. It's taking me much longer than I expected. I wish I had more time to work on it than I do.
