Actually Entered a Contest (Gasp)

Okay, I managed to get up the courage to enter a small contest being held by Angela Knight on her author loop. I doubt I will win any of the top three spots since I’m up against some very good published authors but it did get me to finish a scene I’d been thinking about and I did manage to get out the courage to send work to several of my Writing Goddesses.

We’ll see what happens. The deadline is 3/31 (note that I left it to the last second and almost let myself chicken out).

Thanks to Erin and Jaynie for a) encouraging me and b) smacking my cases of nerves when I need it!

Sigh – won’t make my self-imposed deadline

So right now RWH sits at 54% complete (based on my wag for length – wild ass guess for those who don’t know what a wag is).

I have 8 days before the end of the month, and at least one of those days I’ll be going to birthday dinner and another will be Morgan’s birthday.

In that length of time I would need to get 35000 words done, or about 3750 per day. Somehow I just don’t think that’s going to happen.

Oh well.

But I’m still plugging away at it.

The new job is definitely sucking brain cells. LOTS to do, a ton to learn – by the time I got home today all I could do was stare mindlessly at the TV for a while.

Yay! Miraculous 50%!

Well, two days later than I had hoped due to some events beyond my control and some rampant procrastination, I got to 50% complete on Raven’s White Hart!

Oh Goddess…. It’s hard for me to believe I got to the hump! Now over it and down the other side. Still a lot of story to tell, a lot of the good sex scenes….

But I had to brag that I got here at least… Most of you have read that the furthest I’ve ever gotten before was about 10% – this is 5 TIMES as far!

I’m so jazzed.

I’m still trying to finish by the end of March. I’m not sure I’ll make it but I want to try. We’ll have to see how well this meshes with my new day job too – I might be absolutely delusional!

D-Day Update 3 (day late)

Was up most of Saturday night so I totally spaced on weighing myself on Sunday when I got up. So I weighted myself today instead.

Start = 238
Today = 236
To Go = 73

Not coming off fast but it seems like the universe has been against me and taunts me for my lack of self control.

But at least it’s not going back ON
