How did I miss Wednesday? I recall editing a bit and realizing my chapter three will not actually be a great chapter three but a better chapter four, so now I'm mind-plotting a new chapter three without compromising my word count. Hmm, maybe I should try plotting before I write to avoid such snags.
Nah!
Did I lose you above? Sorry about the ramble, but hey, it's what I do. Ask (sister) number three, she'll tell you. :)
Anyhow, back to losing my Wednesday. I surfed, took care of Monkey (my 18 month old), cleaned house, checked email, checked group sites, checked blog...accomplished nothing, yet it's now Thursday night and I have nothing to show for it. I should really get on with this writing thing...
Started to work on my pitch "blurb" late today. It's so hard to condense a story to two paragraphs, much harder than a full snyopsis, and I'm worried I'm not getting the right tone. Because the line I'm targeting is "dark and sensual", the blurb - as well as the story - should portray this. I don't think I have it yet.
And Ack!, it's due Feb 1st. Not to mention I have to finish this short by then as well (because I want to submit it whether or not my blurb is chosen).
Maybe I should lay off the internet, excepting research, until then...
Nah!
