Happy Weekend to All! I'm still thinking of Mary and Ruthy's blog about writing snow storms. Brrr! The temps are mild in GA. Thank goodness. Mild, but still cold! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm finishing a proposal for a new story for LIS! Love the characters!
Stayed up late reading The Giver of Stars, by Jojo Moyes. A delightful story. What are you reading?
So pleased I won a book.
ReplyDeleteWe're going out to do errands before the NEXT storm, and the next one after that. Sheesh.
I'm making good progress on my WIP. One of my goals for this year is 1,000 words a day, five days a week, and I just hit 20,000. Feeling good about it. It's not 20,000 good words, but they're words.
Have a nice weekend,

Sitting here in Nebraska with more snow coming down. The good news is it doesn't appear to be as much as predicted. But spring will certainly be welcome when it comes.
