Okay, sorry I missed a day or two. I’ve been gone to Whidbey for a nice little break. Well, I got a lot of editing done, and went for walks. And I went to bed really early, like 9. Totally bizarre for me. But I was a little emotionally drained, and here’s why…

Something bizarre happened when I was editing. I had my hair piled on my head in a ponytail and I’m typing away, thinking how much I hate editing! Anyways, I ran my hand over the back of my neck and towards the bottom of my head, and I felt it. A big, hard ball like knot under my skin. I checked the other side of my neck to see if there was a matching one there and couldn’t find one. Soooo yeah I freaked out a bit. I’m hoping it’s nothing, and usually I’m not such a hyopchondriac, but for some reason it really worries me. And cancer runs in my family, and my brother had a big bump on his neck and discovered it was Hodgkin’s disease (he says my bump is nothing like his though.) So I’m still going to check. I have a doctors appointment in few hours. If people could send positive thoughts and prayers that’d be great. :)

Okay, off of the downer scary stuff. Cobblestone Press has contracted my book Silk Hauntings! Well, soon as I sign the contract and sign it back. I’m pretty excited. Right now I’m just trying to write my blurb. I hate blurbs, anyone else hate blurbs? I like reading them, but hate writing them. The key is not to rush it I think. Make sure they’re good. They have to make people want to buy your book afterall. Hee hee.

Well, I should get back to trying to write it though. Or maybe surf some blogs and catch up. Thanks for all the people who’ve been dropping by. It means a lot to me :)

    Sending good thoughts your way, Chica. That’s so scary. Congrats on the contract.
    I really hate blurbs. It’s that condensing thing that I’m not very good at. Trying to sum up my book in three sentences is a challenge for me. Good luck.
