I wish that came easier to me! It's great that the story wheels are turning in your mind even if you know you can't commit to big word counts right now. And ultimately, having fun with your kids is way more important than finishing a draft. Enjoy your week and I hope you find a nice block of time to get out that 750 words you're aiming for!Erin L.

We are only 6 months from the publication date, so I expect the copy-edits will arrive not that long from now.<br /><br />It was tricky to get all that revising in between all the family and professional events I already had scheduled before this deadline fell on my head, so I'm taking it easy for the next few days and reading instead of writing. :)Dianne K.
