a chapter a day keeps the scissors away

I've got a freakin' head cold! Now, on top of racing to finish my novel whilst bringing home bacon and the usual mom stuff, the threat of a bob on top of puffy eyes, red nose and achy joints joins the fun.

Not that I'm complaining.

Much.

The only way I'm getting this done, at this point, is to write a chapter every freakin' day. I have 15 days, and probably 12 chapters left. That leaves three days to edit roughly 350 pages.

The good news is: I'm almost at 300 pages of "mostly" usable content. Hope I don't run out of Kleenex!

    I'm watching you! I'm sorry you are not feeling well, honey, but I'm glad to hear that you're still pushing forward with the writing. How sick are you? Is it the swine flu? Keep working. You are going to be so happy on October 2nd. And you'll still have all that glorious hair too! ox Cheryl
