It's about adventure! Life, Scouting, Family, writing what else is there? |
Well, starting today, I am on a SEVEN day working stretch and I don't get another DAY OFF unil 12 AUG, which of course is my Mother-In-Law's wedding, which of course will be a demanding day on me physically. Let's just say I'm out to HERRRRRRRRRE. Brent and Andrew are in the wedding. Andrew is the ring bearer and Brent is giving her away. Do I have something wear? TRUTHFULLY? No, I don't. Do I really want to go out and pay $$$$$ for a maternity dress only to wear once in my lifetime? No, I don't. I hate to say it, but I am going to look very unglamorous. We'll see how that goes over. Not only that - I DON'T HAVE THE TIME to go shopping for a maternity dress!! I have to WORK the next SEVEN Days. So that's where I am. Yesterday I went out and got her a wedding gift - Swavaoki Crystal. Expensive but gorgeous. It is two Tucan lovebirds kissing. I submitted ACROSS THE FICKLE WINDS OF HISTORY to an editor for a copyedit, moving forward on having it published by Lulu. It will take some time but I've learned patience. So far, my new prologue to HEART/WOLF'S TORMENT is well recieved but I got one comment saying "it all sounded" the same. Haha. Everyone's a critic. I'll go back and look and see if I can't define the VOICE of the dialogue better. ((hugs)) to all Steph |
