So I REALLY got into a writing groove today. I decided I wanted Silk Hauntings done. And soon. So today I wrote 20 pages. Actually finished the book. Okay, not entirely finished. I did something I swore I’d never do. I wrote ‘insert kinky sex scene’ and then finished the story. I just had the ending in my head, and I had to get it out before I forgot. So I did. YAY! Honestly, I can’t tell if what I wrote is crap or not, but I’m sure my crit partners and my own editing/re-read will show me. Hee hee. We shall see. And then it’s off to Cobblestone Press. This is a project sort of thing for them. So it took me about 4 weeks to write a 100 page novella. Hmm, not my best. But I didn’t really get my act together until last week.

Gosh, I’d like to say I did all kinds of other exciting today, but when I write 20 pages it pretty much means I don’t do anything else. Oh, I typed up minutes for an online chapter meeting. Oh, hey, did I ever mention that I got promoted to Vice President? Yup, I’m officially VP of the Seattle chapter of the RWA. Fun Fun. I did try and exercise today, and failed miserably. My VCR started working (i swear it’s possessed) and I attempted to do the advanced Weight Watchers work out video. I got about 15 minutes in and had to stop. Well, Emma distracted me, but seriously, I was glad for the diversion. I will do better tomorrow. And no more cheese. I had cheese this weekend. I hope I didn’t gain back those 2 lbs! Grrr.

I may be going off to Whidbey again tomorrow. *Sigh* I’d rather not, especially now that I finished my book and I have nothing to write… okay, wait. I lied. I want to enter the EC caveman contest. I’ll write that. Gotta figure out what now. Something contemporary… and hot.
Good deal. Maybe it’ll come to me in my dreams.

Wow, I wrote a crap load today AND blogged. I’m kind of impressed with myself. Although I’m so tired I think I’m seeing double. I’ll go to bed now… and dream about the Starbucks coffee I’m going to inject in the morning.
