Monday Check In

Last week...

Writing Related: I managed to get Mississippi's story out to my editor and beta readers by my self imposed deadline of July 3rd. The draft isn't as clean as it usually is when I send it out. I'm hoping they don't find a lot of things that need reworking/rewriting.

What I'm Reading: I'm struggling to read Girl, Forgotten by Karin Slaughter. It's the second book in the Andrea Oliver series. I love the Will Trent series, so I thought I'd give this series a try. This book seems slow to get started. Admittedly, I'm only on page 45, but so far, other than the prologue, it's been more of a rehash of what happened in the first book, Pieces of Her, rather than a new story. 

Random Things: I eat a lot of tossed salad in the summer. Usually I'm good about using a reasonable (read "healthy") amount of dressing on my salad. I also try to use low fat dressings so that I'm not negating the health benefits of all the raw vegetables in my salad. Once a year around my mom's birthday (it was last week) I have blue cheese dressing which I love. And because I only eat it once a year, I put so much blue cheese dressing on my salad, you could say my salad is swimming in it. Mmm, delicious, but definitely not healthy.
