I’m so glad I’m not alone in my dysfunctional health. Thanks everyone for the support and sharing of your own issues 
That’s why I absolutely love the world of blogging. I absolutely love the support and friendship you can have with people you may have never even met. Thank you for being so inspiring and I’ll keep you posted. You may soon see a topic titled ‘Fun with Needles’ because there’s a good chance I may have to go on insulin; my insurance likely won’t cover the pill my Dr wants to put me on and insulin is the other choice.
Okay off the medical topic. Today was a pretty good day. Which, I mean, can be hard to say when the Seahawks blew their chance at getting into the Super Bowl and my daughter pukes all over the bathroom floor (completely unrelated as she doesn’t get football yet.)
Here’s what went good. And actually, my good day goes back to yesterday as well. Yesterday I was writing back and forth with Cherry about how to handle the free trip to Nationals. Can I just say again how much I love that woman? I mean, she really believes in me. I think she’s so amazing and, like Feisty said, I wanna be Cherry some day. Seriously, the woman’s generosity humbles me. Not to mention she writes the most kick ass books.
So I wrote/burst through this block I’ve had on my single title. Things started flowing, and I was writing. Actually here’s what worked for me. What got me through. I imagined that I was in a Round Robin and someone else had written the first third of my book. It was now my turn to make it shine, I was being GIVEN the chance. And you know what, it totally worked. I looked at it with a fresh, totally different perspective. Then later I had a great lunch with a couple of childhood friends and our moms. A reunion of such. Great fun and seriously, I loved my chicken gyro, but I only half the chicken.
So then onto today. I went to Value Village (thrift shop) for clothes for Emma and found 1 Gap shirt, 1 Old Navy shirt, 1 Old Navy jeans, 1 Old Navy nylon running pants, and then 2 little Hawaiian sun dresses for Emma. All for under $10. I am a bargain shopper. Then I came home, watched the rest of the Seahawks game, Emma puked and then passed out.
So then I started to write my ST. And BAM it hits. Out of left field, blindsided with another erotic romance idea. Which pissed me off, because I was taking a break. But this one is futuristic/sci-fi (By the way, can someone tell me what qualifies a book as one or another?) Now usually I’d store it away for later, but it was spilling over in my head and scenes were just happening. I knew if I didn’t let loose I could lose the moment. The last time this happened, where the idea just hit me hard I wrote Love for Sale in just a few weeks. Which honestly might be my favorite book that I wrote (It comes out Valentine’s Day!)
So I opened a new Word document to purge myself of the idea. I wrote 1500 words in like an hour and half (while Emma was passed out post vomiting.) And I actually think it’s pretty good. Totally not my normal style, haven’t written a funny line yet, but I’m feeling it. I’m going to make this a novella. I have a target publisher in mind, or if I think it’s some of my best stuff, I may query some agents. So for awhile, I think I’ll be writing two books at once.
Anyway, I’m in a bubbly little mood and can’t wait for Emma to pass out again tonight so I can delve into my first and very erotic love scene. I hope you all had a great weekend. Thanks again for the support. Hugs! And the pic, seriously, it’s a chicken.
