Uh oh....

Here I am, totally prepared to waste time surfing the internet in order to avoid cleaning up messy chapters. I checked bloglines and NONE of the writers blogs whose feeds I subscribe to have posted anything new. What's up with that?

  • Jennifer Ashley just needs to post more often.

  • So does Marjorie Liu

  • Sandy Schwab lives in Germany so she's probably asleep right now. I forgive her.

  • Patti O'Shea is probably working on her house and revisions. So, reluctantly, she is off the hook, too.

  • Megan Framptom is off visiting the Picky Vegetarian which means right now she's on a plane and can't post.

  • I just subscribed to Elmore Leonard's feed, so can't say if the lack of a new post means he's goofing off and writing a book or something instead of posting in his blog.

  • I have already sent Liz Maverick emails pleading for a resumption of her blog which I LOVED and would like to love again. Liz! Post!



What this means is that it's plainly the fault of Jennifer Ashley, Marjorie Liu and Liz Maverick that I have to go read those stupid chapters. I can't blame Miss Snark because she's an agent, not a writer. Thanks, gals. Really.

I've nothing interesting to say because I'm up to my neck in stupid corrections. Argh! Argh! Argh!
I agree. These writers need to start blogging more. How can I procrastinate without enablers???

That was a rhetorical question.

Yeah, well, it's too late to get on my good side now. I read the chapters and used up almost an entire red pen, I think. Thanks for not posting. LOL!
Carolyn,

I'm on Level 22 of Gridlock. At least you did something productive. (Well, yeah, I did email my revisions, but that was about 10pm last night. I forgot that there are people who actually get Presidents' Day off. ;-)
