Sooooooooooo............
I'm in revision hell right now. I've never been in revision hell before. It's true. Is that a strange thing for a writer to say? Maybe, maybe not. I'm the type of writer who revises as she writes. I write. Then, I reread what I wrote and edit. The next day, I reread it and edit again. That's enough for me. When I'm completely done with the story, I do another read through and that's it. I don't leave it be for a few days or a week and then come back. When I'm done...I'm done. I guess I'm anal that way. Who knows?

I think I already mentioned that I completed my BIAM project (four days ahead of time - yeah me!), but it's over the word count. E-Harlequin Spice only wants projects up to 15K...I was over by about 1300 words. So, I've been reading and tightening up..now, I'm down to about 15,900. I have a feeling that I'm going to be cutting into a couple of nice sex scenes. Ack! We'll see.

My next projects to take me through the end of May is a re-write of It Takes A Thief and my Rune for Cobblestone, The Librarian Who Wore Stillettos. Thief has been rewritten twice already and it's just not working the way it is. So, I have a new idea for it and I'm going to work it in and see how it goes. The Librarian is a story I came up with a year ago, wrote the first 10 or so pages and now I need to finish it. I'm hoping to get both of these done by May 31st. If I can complete 1k each a day on both of these (I'm aiming for 20K on each), then it'll happen. But of course, life always seems to get in the way, but I'll keep positive that nothing major will be thrown at me.

At least by the time "The End" comes - school will almost be out. June 1st - here I come.
