Now I'm powering through novel no 1, doing a fairly cutting rewrite - all those pesky adjectives, adverbs etc. I feel like I'm reaching towards my goal. Meanwhile I'm churning out short stories and flash fiction to keep me sharp.

The End of my first draft for NEVERLOVE is staring me in the face so it and I have a long chat scheduled this weekend. Then it'll be time to set it aside for a little bit and start revisions on MINGLED while also doing some beta reading and critting for a couple of other authors. Busy, busy writierly times.<br /><br />Loving it. But so sorry to hear about that wayward neighbor. Hopefully, some form of common sense will kick in on his part. Then again...it may not :-)Angela Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03324366495151363782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8733289016000331233.post-57921934711488685112012-06-15T12:06:04.626-04:002012-06-15T12:06:04.626-04:00Sounds like your moving right along!

I thought I knew what was going to happen in the next chapter, but now I realize it's too soon to do that.<br /><br />Luckily, I'm taking a train to NYC with the family this afternoon.

I'm waiting for the final beta reader to get back to me on my revision request novel (her comments are the ones I'm most nervous about).
