Okay... I'm hiding out for the next couple of days. Me and my trusty million page Writer's Thesaurus - yes I use a Thesaurus! And I thank God I have it, because while reading my current WIP I realized that wow... I sure like to use certain words... I won't mention them here, but man, pregnancy has sucked my brain dry. And I have no time to let it find it's way back to me, so for now my Thesaurus is my guide!
Thursday night is my personal deadline for first round edits to meet this February 1st deadline... although, I'm starting to think I was slightly delusional when I thought throwing myself back into writing was the answer. Maybe I should have taken it slower, but it's too late now and I love this story too much to let it just sit collecting dust - like my other 4 - yes 4!!! WIP's (I want to say waiting neatly on a desk somewhere, but I'd be lying! Their somewhere in a box in the basement. And one day, I swear they will be complete - I just don't see that day in the near future.)
Can you tell I'm stalling? Anyways, I hope all of you are having great success with your writing goals. I'll check in on your posts, while munchkin is taking her morning nap tomorrow! (Yet another stalling tactic!)

Only four?? ;)
I have, no kidding, NINE wips. Some are in synopsis/chapter outline form only, others have anywhere from 1,500 to 12,000 words...
The good news? I have more than just one idea.
The bad news? They come at a faster rate than my attention span is long -- LOL!
Yes, I have about 6! So I understand your plight.
Although I want to jump back and forth like I have been, I promised Christine to stick to one and damn it I am. Though secretly IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!
See you know it's something when I write in all caps. ;)
