Mood: Tired and need to whine.
May is just not a good month for taking on too many projects. It’s fast approaching the end of the school year, I’m taking a synopsis workshop, report cards are looming, I need to get a submission for Put Your Heart in a Book contest ready (which mean write/rewrite the d*mned synopsis soon, the yard needs serious weeding and my allergies and neck are killing me.
Oh, and trying to finish Missing Magic is giving me another kind of headache altogether. I’m so close, yet so far. Snaithan’s character is morphing again, for the better, I believe, but his rounding growth affects everything else. Then, I’ve got a conflict on one character needing to be in two places at one time. Need to fix that. Then, a scene I want to happen in the climatic battle, can’t, unless I figure how to move either a character or the battle and that solution currently escapes me.
Okay, whining over. I think I can make the 60k goal by the 31st, I’m less than 15k away, but it has been a hard push to get this far in wordcount, mostly since I chose projects that need editing, rewriting and expanding rather than a fresh, start from scratch story. I am really pleased with how far I’ve come on Missing Magic and on Deeper Than Bone, even though DTB has been neglected lately in favor of finishing MM.
