Long Time, No Blog

It's been crazy between work and the holidays, so I've been a bad little blogger. Part of it has been that I'm waiting for a final official offer from my editor on my next two books. I've already received word that an offer is coming, but that hasn't really made the waiting any easier.

On the upside, I'm moving ahead full steam with the first of those two books. So far I've been doing a good job of meeting my daily page totals. Over the weekend, I decided to kick it up a notch and increase my daily totals to see if I couldn't have a rough draft finished by the middle of February and the full, polished manuscript ready to go by the end of February. I really, really want to get a book on the shelves in 2009, and finishing up in February is about the only way to do that.

Did everyone have a good holiday? Mine was pretty good. I got my annual New Year's cold, but it was milder than most I've had in the past. Mucinex is a wonder drug.

I hate waiting. Most of the time I feel like I spend more of my life WAITING.

I hate waiting too. Too impatient--which is why I'm continually surprised that I chose a career in which I'm constantly waiting on something! Hope you'll hear something really soon!!
