Monday Musings come to you in form of a list. Because I'm under-caffeinated and as of yet un-showered (no I don't stink and no, I'm not looking like I've butchered something anymore as I did after yesterday's Red Paint Extravaganza at the German Ex-Pat House). Anyway, without further ado, some things that are on my mind today.
1.) First off, I want to thank everyone for their hand-holding efforts and great suggestions as I've finally decided on the title EMPIRE OF LIGHT for my WIP. You folks from AW are priceless!
2.) The clock's ticking. I've officially thrown myself into the gutter with my friend Writing Demons as we wrestle to finish our respective WIPs by the end of May, which in combination with -
3.) Self-editing and outlining rocks! Yes, it takes time, but it makes your drafts so much tighter, more concise and overall higher in quality, definitely worth it. And -
4.) ohmygodihavewaytoomanybooksandcraptopackandgetmovedtomynewplacebytheendofmay results in -
5.) in which I shall quote Writing Demons telling me "You're crazy. That's probably why your writing is so good. You're fucking crazy." Um, yes, I do love the fountain of love and encouragement that are my writer friends ;)
Anyway, off I am to shower (I know, I know), pack more boxes (I'm getting a fucking Kindle, folks.) and write more (Now I'm wondering whether the red paint that I used to paint my living room yesterday is in fact the blood and sweat that went into this novel...)
Oh and I hope you like my new theme. I heart the dystopian.
Anyway, Dystophil out.
Crazy is going to be a term of great endearment one of these days. Just wait and see. "Baby," and "sweetheart" are getting bumped off the charts. "Crazy" is definitely the way to go. =P
ReplyDeleteHahaha, see I've been saying that about the term "bitch" for years. Who wants to be infantile or full of sugar and preservatives when they can be a "crazy bitch"? ;)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you'll be busy for a while! But you can do it! *cheers on crazy awesome people*
