That's it for this little moderator. I have to get up in just over 4 hours and I'm a walking zombie NOW...  Smiley

Have a great night everyone, see you at the usual time in the morning! Cheesy

Considering how two of my favorite three male celebs have First Nations blood in them (one is Cherokee and the other is part of a small Canadian nation) and I'm always drooling over pics of them... Smiley

Night!! Cheesy

I made it through Chapter 12 and got a little done on Chapter 14 (yeah, I spotted some places that needed fixing as I was checking the page count) so I'm gonna head out for the night.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Morning. I'm currently on dial up. The snow has stopped but apparently there are enough ice crystals in the upper atmosphere to mess up the satellite reception. I have a feeling I'll be getting Book One proofed today. I'll be back when I have the satellite or when I can chase the kids off this computer.

The connection is temperamental but I'm getting through at the moment. Don't be surprised if I disappear. I have a feeling that the connection is gonna be hit or miss for a while....

The connection is still slow but it's there. So I'm here unless we have another blast of snow. So I will be here and proofreading.

Gotcha. I'm going to do an update in my writing thread and on my blog while keeping an eye on things in here.

It was slow going but I did manage to get some new stuff added....

I'm plowing through Chapter 13 and I'm finding a lot of places where the prose can be tightened up which, of course, I'm doing. I have 62 pages to go and I should get through them today if the eyes hold out.

I don't mind "researching" the naughty stuff.....
In fact, the more "research" the better!

Okay, THAT particular part of "research" is enjoyable and fun, I'll admit it!! Smiley The rest of what I was going to say is NOT PG rated so I'm going to shut up about that now....  Smiley

However, when one is sitting here at the computer and going through countless pages of stuff looking for ONE item, "tedious" and "boring" does NOT cover it at all......  Smiley

Oh I've been there myself. Before you can decide something like an area's climate or topography, you have to know how "weather" works. I have a "weird" situation on my planet in that I have several mountain ranges that run "north/south" and one that runs "east/west" that intersects with one of the "north/west" ranges at a 90 degree angle. Fortunately, I found a way to explain it!

Heading out for the night now... Son wants the computer so he can play Rocket Bowl and I'm wiped. I'll do the research over the next couple of days before my next writing marathon, while Son is in school and Hubby is home. Research for a story is still working on it so it's not like I am neglecting my writing! LOL

Have a great night everyone, see y'all about the usual time in the morning. Cheesy

Smiley<--- That about sums it up. I've gotten through Book 1, changed it from single space to double space and back again and have found and fixed the formatting errors caused by the change, losing two or three pages in the process of tightening up the prose. Tomorrow, I'll start going through it again looking for any formatting errors I missed. By Friday, eyes and brain should be fried but I "should" be done. At which point, I'm going to politely inquire at the agency I queried back in November that claims a 3 to 4 week response time as to why I have not heard back from them. The response I get will determine if I will be heading to the post office some morning soon with a VERY heavy box of manuscript.....

Okay.
Cross eyed, brain fried, cognitive functions going offline.
It is time for this pleased but exhausted writerperson to head for her little bed.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Morning everyone!

I'm here and not awake yet, I stayed up late to watch the Best in Show part of the Westminster Dog show last night... The winner was a Pekingese named Malachai, who is adorable! I admit being a fan of the larger breeds (I was rooting for the Doberman, the German Shepherd or the Irish Setter) but this little guy was a cutie pie and yeah I think he did deserve the title of Best in Show.

I'm planning on doing research for the manuscript today, after I get caught up that is... And if I don't wind up taking a nap so I'm somewhat awake for CSI later tonight!

I'm around for a couple of hours anyway... Time to start getting things put into Son's bookbag and get my boots on for the trek to the bus stop.......

Morning!
We're back from town. I did pick up the extra paper so I'm good to go with printing when I'm ready.  It may seem "old fashioned" but I'm looking forward to reading my book in hard copy, even if it is still in manuscript form.
