I have decided on the second chapter that I am going to polish and I am going to start next week. I have been writing daily and feel pretty good about it and am ready to start the next step in the Brande book on writing by appointment. I will start that tomorrow. It doesn't seem that there is enough hours in a day to get everything done. I also want to sew as I have a lot of projects to complete, but writing is more important than that. I am going to have to create a schedule to fit everything in. This will dovetail perfectly with the Brande book. I think they call it kismet.

I wanted to pop in an update my writing. I have been thinking about it a lot, 'cause you know, thinking is SO much better than writing! HA! Anyway, I have been thinking about it and I have picked a chapter in my book to polish and send out. I need two, so I am thinking about the other one. As soon as I decide I will let everyone know! I know you can't wait!

Enough of the sarcasm. I have been writing every day. I wrote a poem the other morning, even. I am feeling pretty good about my writing. As for the article at work, my editor liked it but felt it needed a subtle push in the direction it was going, so I was sweating out a phone interview I needed to do: the person in question hadn't called me back and deadline is tomorrow! Well, he did and I got my interview and I will add the extra material and will happy when I can send it on to layout. Whew! The writing wasn't as horrible as I made it out to be in my mind. I always work myself up for no reason, but it turned out really good, I thought. I told my editor I wouldn't be averse to writing again in the future.

OK, and I'm out! Cheers!
