(You might think about getting earplugs though, just so you can get some sleep.)<br /><br />I had a wonderful weekend. I was able to pick up my baby(book) from my publish. There's nothing like holding your creation in your hands.<br /><br />Sounds like you're well on your way to seeing your dream come true, too.Kathi Oram Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11959149321213743448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4174226224096540850.post-33247646402476258482010-07-27T20:36:54.340-04:002010-07-27T20:36:54.340-04:00I wish it would snow too!

I was awake in the middle of the night recently, and since my first revisions had just come back, I decided to stop trying to get back to sleep and I outlined what to do with the revisions. That's great that you got so many words written. You just have to get that draft down, in whatever form.

I had a lovely weekend with a friend, but am feeling very wooly-headed with my writing. I just cannot, cannot do anything with it at the moment. I just sit blank-eyed at the computer.

Bring the snow!!! I did a Calvin and Hobbes post yesterday with some of their snowmen...it was funny. We worked on getting the insides of our house more completed. Now, aside from major stuff (renovation and some more painting) we're pretty much done for a while. No writing done. No reading done.

So is that puppy making all that noise. Sometimes when we're surrounded by distraction instead of getting annoyed & caving in, we create. Clearly, that's what you did.

I wish I was where you are...I'm on-call for a neighbor friend who gave birth to a preemie 10 days ago (I'm watching her kids, driving her to the hospital, running errands, etc.) I just can't concentrate on my writing, even though it's about driving me crazy. I'm getting that spooked feeling that I've forgotten the story, the characters, how to write. Wish me luck, I need it!<br /><br />((hugs)) NicoleAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01899768909313326172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4174226224096540850.post-68441839415222566342010-07-26T13:49:55.189-04:002010-07-26T13:49:55.189-04:00I love when that happens and I'm so impressed ...I love when that happens and I'm so impressed that you got up to write instead of complaining about the noise.Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00685341739870191402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4174226224096540850.post-21096724979520443402010-07-26T13:00:26.320-04:002010-07-26T13:00:26.320-04:00Sure that was a puppy? it could have been your mu...Sure that was a puppy? it could have been your muse.Bossy Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12568355839499622409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4174226224096540850.post-50051878142450414642010-07-26T12:58:56.146-04:002010-07-26T12:58:56.146-04:00That's amazing, Anne!
