Since I am taking a short break from churning out words, why not?

The Rules:
Take a picture of yourself right now.
Don't change your clothes, don't fix your hair...just take a picture.
Post that picture with NO editing.
Post these instructions with your picture.




Glassy, unfocused eyes for the win!

I would just like to report that since I posted this message a week ago, I have written over 20,000 words.

Apparently the fear of the Editor is the beginning of all authorial wisdom, at least for me -- or the end of my authorial dithering, at any rate. And I am especially happy to report that after slashing Chapter Six and Seven to ribbons and rebuilding the entire sequence, it is a million bazillion quadrillion times better than the redundant, unfocused mess I had before. Plus, it now has one of my favorite secondary characters bringing the awesome in a way I didn't expect, which is always a plus...

Did I mention that today we also got a cat? Because we did, and she is lovely. I will spam you with pictures of her tomorrow.
Oh, my word, my sides, my everything.

[livejournal.com profile] mistful, this is totally for you. Done by the Author Herself, no less.

If this is what happens when writers go on road trips with their kids, I can only be thankful that we do not have more Playmobil.

(Aside to [livejournal.com profile] eegatland: Put the toys down and go write another book. I grow impatient!)
