Romancing the Blog

Blog needed a serious makeover. I am hoping the new look will help motivate me to start blogging regularly and work on increasing my online presence. Network, network baby!

P.S. I am increasingly certain (read: positive) I will not be finishing Nano. : (  While I am sad and irritated with myself, it was not a waste of my time. Not only did it motivate me to finish my first novel, it helped me lay the groundwork for a strong second novel. Always look on the bright side, right?

Bring on the Bubbly!

Last night at 11:00 pm, I FINISHED the first draft of my novel!!!!!!!! Now, I am well aware of the mountains of revisions to come and the seemingly endless editing, but frankly, I don't give a damn. It has been two years in the making (at least), finding time to write while working 10 hour days, early mornings, late nights, but it is done....For now. : )

I would say time to edit, but I signed up for NaNoWriMo this year and I plan on "winning." It just so happens I have the perfect plot in mind.

So, this is your formal warning that I will be obnoxiously giddy the next few days and hopefully, come December, I will have TWO manuscripts to edit. : )
