Some GOOD News for a Change!

Here Come the Pandas!

36 cubs borne in a single year!

Need a laugh? Go here - lots of sweet, funny graphics. I think it was started by a Dad with time on his hands.

I just saw a story on the local about a Gaston, NC senior lady who credits her reaching nearly 100 years old to her practice of drinking a strong gin and tonic with a lime, once a day. She is not the only one.

And, perhaps the best news, I've completed the first pass at my novel's revision.

Yay!

A woman investigates her twin's unexpected death.

However, I've made a lot of notes on OTHER things I want to change before I send it to the copyeditor. At the rate I'm getting it done, I may actually finish before the end of the month. That's my plan, as I intend to enter National Novel Writing Month again this year.

I've Been MIA For a Few Days

UPDATE: I found a link that I thought worthy of reading - posted here.

I made a strong push in my revisions - I think I can finish them by the end of next week. I'm anxious to, because I want to have the time to plan my next book before NaNoWriMo starts November 1.

The next book will be a sci-fi story, with a murder mystery twist. It's much more complicated, involving building a world in detail, and sketching out the galaxy's political/social dimensions, as well. I'm planning this as the first book in a series, so I want to get things right.

It's taken me about a year for this first book, although, to be honest, I spent a lot of that time avoiding working on it. Realistically, I'm shooting for about 6 -8 months of writing/revision, now that I better understand this process.

I want to have the first book up on Kindle before Easter. I should be finished and ready comfortably before then.
