Monday Check In

Last week...

Writing Related:  Had a pretty good writing week last week. I need to contact my cover artist to get on her schedule for the cover of Caine's book. I've already booked my editor so I need to get my butt in gear to make sure the manuscript is ready for her by the time I'm supposed to send it to her.

What I'm Reading: I'll be starting Pretend You're Mine by Lucy Score tonight. 

Random Thoughts: I'm trying to decide if I want to cut my hair this summer. It's nearly to my waist and I almost always wear it tied up in the warm weather so why not get it cut shorter. I can't seem to make up my mind - one day I'm going to cut it, the next day I'm not going to cut it. I don't have any real reason to hurry to make a decision since it's been cool and rainy lately.

What's Up Wednesday

This week...

My Current WIP (Work in Progress): I made some revisions/changes to the next two chapters from suggestions I received from my critique partner. This week, I'm working on rewriting a scene from a different point of view. I'm not if I will like it or if it's better the way it was originally written. I'm going to have my critique partner look at it and see what she thinks.

Quote of the Week: "Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies." ~ Mother Teresa (This is a repeat of the quote from last week. I think the quote is something we need to be reminded of.)

What I'm Reading: I started reading Bleeding Tarts by Kirsten Weiss last night. It's the second book in the Pie Town mystery series. 

Random Thoughts: Monday was National Iced Tea day. I'm a big iced tea drinker during the summer months. When I was a kid, my mom would make sun tea. I remember impatiently waiting for the tea to steep as it sat in the sun. Now I use cold brew tea bags so I can make it and drink it within ten minutes or so.

What's Up Wednesday

This week...

My Current WIP (Work in Progress):  I made some revisions/changes to the first two chapters from suggestions I received from my critique partner. It was a busy week so this was something that needed to be done and that I could fit into my crazy schedule.

What I'm Reading: I started reading Fatal Identity by Marie Force Sunday night. This is the tenth book in the Fatal series. I really like this series and am glad to get back to it.

Random Thoughts: It is taking much longer to knit the panels that have the colored triangles in them. I can knit a cream colored panel panel in one to two weeks, but the colored triangle panel takes about four weeks. When I first started this project I was thinking I would have it done in about three months. Now, I'm thinking I might be done with it by September. Hopefully.
