I love Wednesdays. Not the beginning, not the end, just the nice fat sweet stuff right in the middle of the week.

So yesterday I spoke with Brent Monahan, my beloved mentor, and when he asked how the book was going, well, of course he had to hear Baby Tracy moan and cry that it’s horrible, just horrible. He took pity on me and helped me focus, and we came up with a few tweaks that might just WORK. The bones are there, but what I’m looking for is a living, breathing, flesh and blood thing (that hopefully does not resemble Frankenstein in any way).
I’m looking for resonance, and Brent reminded me of his three golden rules: Clarity, Brevity, Unity. Which are great when you KNOW WHAT THE BOOK IS ABOUT. Ahem. He also helped me nail down the themes. So I’m back on track. Thanks, Brent!
I also took my son to the eye doctor, and my poor, sweet little laddie needs glasses. Poor Baby E!
It’ll be okay. He has a GREAT personality.
Oh, and I’m back on a diet. Yay for me. I can look forward to weeks of low energy and gas pains. But hey, I slept last night. Life has a way of equaling things out.
Happy Wednesday!
