Today is (was) my last writing Monday. I got a lot done. Last night I was reading it and thought parts sucked. Sigh. I am honing in on making my hero's motivations precise, so I've had to change a few things, all to the better. And I have re-ordered chapters, that's good. But now so many hours are just gone from my writing time. I will not sigh outloud anymore. Hopefully, it won't last. The other day, I had an email from someone who was wondering about A Stranger's Heart and whether there was a publication date. And it occurred to me that there's really no reason, other than lack of time, that I could not sell the story on spec and then, hey, just fix the silly thing. I could maybe be pitching The Heir, SH, and Lucy and Thrale etc and get a huge advance that would allow me to quit my day job and maybe just have a part time job. This is my new dream.
