Monday Stuff

First of all, there is no story about the squirrel in the hat. I just thought he was cute and dapper and would make Monday a little more fun.

So what's going on today?

Well, Julie Leto is going nuts (hey, that ties in with the squirrel pic after all!) over at www.plotmonkeys.com by posting an excerpt a day for seven days and giving away a Borders/Amazongift card for $20 to anyone who posts a comment. That's seven winners! Totally cool - and a great way to get a sneak peek at a book that is sure to be The Awesome.

Also, big shout out to Dayna Hart for having her baby! Yay! And congrats! I think she was pregnant for like 13 months.

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend. I'm happy to say that despite eating three white chocolate cannolis, I am still down a pound. Now I'm off to commune with my elliptical so that fact remains true. Then I'm going to finish some hard copy edits and start typing them in. Lots to do. Have a great Monday! What are you working on?

    It could have been my book that pushed Dayna over the edge. She was reading it at the time :)

    I am working on. . .nothing this week. Puppy duty, relaxing, reading. Next week, though, it's back to the grind.

    Yay Dayna!

    I've been sick-and editing one book after the other-but it looks like I'm finally going to be able to get back to work on my WIP.

    I too, need to commune with my elliptical. Though my couch looks like it wants me more. ;)

    It did feel like Dayna was pregnant for 13 months huh? She probably feels the same way. :)

    I've been writing like a crazy person which is good. Today I gotta run to the post office but other than that, I'm writing. :)
