Last week was insane, this week is crazy. I’m not intentionally maintaining any sort of radio silence. I’ve been taking stuff in lately, and not doing much on the putting stuff out front. I’m still slaving away on the short story I’ve been working on and this morning the words came a bit easier than they had been. Probably because I had other things to do and that’s the way my life works. Go figure.

We’ll see what stays and what goes once I get it to the point where I think it’s finished. The hero and heroine have finally met — only 1/4th of my word count into it — that doesn’t sound good. But, things are rolling along, or they were until I had to break for real life. Bria and I agreed to push our deadline back from the 30th until the day after Labor Day. I’m still going to see if I can get as much possible done in 5 days. We’ll see what happens.

Bria posted an awesome blog today about one of her live-saving books. I still have Jacob Have I Loved on my shelf, but I can never seem to bring myself to reread it. It was good and Bria nails it when she says the author, Katherine Patterson, UNDERSTANDS. Yes, but I don’t particularly like remembering those days, feelings or such. Go read Bria’s post if you haven’t already and show her some comment love too.

Something I saw that had my jaw flapping in shock and horror this morning was on Lillian Feisty’s blog. Nooo… MTV shouldn’t be allowed to ruin the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Nooooo…. you can sign the petition too. Does MTV even play videos any more? I’m not even sure I like VH-1 any more either. Maybe I’m just getting old and un-hip.

Anyway, Stop the Remake, Save the Lips!
