The Evening Post

Early Edition! I'm posting now because I'm t i r e d and not sure how long I can keep my eyes open. It's totally my fault. I was reading last night and couldn't get to a good place to stop. Damn authors and their exciting plots! Got to 15K plus on DX, and I have one chapter to mostly rewrite and two scenes to write and then I'll be done and in the massively rewriting phase. I made some small but crucial tweaks in my heroine and that's made all the difference. Before, she was BORING and now she's not. Plus it turns out my hero is a terrible driver with a lead foot. So, actually, I'm kind of having fun right now.

We had a break in the rain for nearly a week, but today it's gloomy and wet again. But I remember sun, so I think I'm OK.

Also, I'm having a Name That Hero Quickie Contest! Check it out. Contest closes May 15 2006. My newsletter subscribers got the word first, but that doesn't mean you're out of luck.
