	Morning! I'm here and ready to a.) publish Keyholder's Castle: Damnation and Trial and b.) start a new "What's Happenin'" thread. One down and one to go.

	Meanwhile, in Canada, a thick blue haze hangs over southwestern Nova Scotia

	We creative types have to create in order to feel ALIVE... That's why I write. Without my writing, I would not be living, only existing. ~Me~ Music is essential to life. ~Me~ I'm sunny natured with a side of EVIL...

	The blue haze gets thicker and some indistinct babbling is heard off in the distance...

	The haze disappears... DONE DRAFT ONE of the synopsis, thanks to advice from two dear friends! I was overthinking it again... DUH... And RAMBLING... I'm going to get into mother/moderator mode now that it's out o fthe way. I'm going to let NR perk for another day or so before I do the final reread of it and work on the cover letters tomorrow and Wednesday for the first two publishers on my long list. May the gods help me....

	Draft Two of the synopsis is on the go now, the guys are watching bowling so I have a little extra time to work. LOL

	I hate Word and I'm pretty sure I hate epublishing. I have just spent the better of the LAST FOUR HOURS correcting what Word/Amazon epublishing decided were spelling errors. I'm exhausted and I hope what I've done has taken care of most of the so called errors.

	I prefer Office XP Pro over Office 2007, probably because I'm so used to XP Pro that anything newer throws me off. Good freaking grief... Sounds like I may have similar "FUN" if I ever wind up epublishing via Amazon too.... SIGH ETA: And I just caught something that I have to add to the acknowledgements in NR... Now I have to go through the ENTIRE manuscript, make a list and add that list to the acknowledgements/credits page.... bangs head on wall

	Second reload. More corrections. And no, I did NOT have this problem with the first book!

	Gotcha and I was wondering what was going on... I've been waiting for word it's UP all day.... I'm still working on different things related to NR, here and there between real life stuff and chatting with friends in FB.

	Third Upload. More corrections. Hoping this will be the lat one.... You probably won't have such a hard time because, for one thing, you don't have any unique words in your story and secondly, you are writing in a Microsoft word processing program to start with.

	True!! Actually I had to add quite a few things to the dictionary in Word, like the name of my hometown for starters... YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

	It is now in "review" -- 5 hours after I started. I did a quick review and it's a good thing I put in my author's note 'cause there are STILL formatting errors in it. sigh I'll let you know when it's "live." The Canadian price based on the current exchange rate had gone up but I fixed it so Canadians will pay $.99 like Americans.

	Awesome and thank you Penth! It should be up by the time I get up in the morning so I'll be able to get it THEN... Synopsis draft two is done and I'm deciding what to attack next, possibly the excerpts list. I don't have to have my full concentration for that so I can work on it while Son's home. Tomorrow I start the cover letters OR the final word count and reread. I haven't decided which way to go yet... I'm thinking the final reread will need my full attention and take at least a day or two to complete, if not three to four days. I'll be going over NR with an ULTRA fine toothed comb to make sure Penth and I didn't miss anything in the editing, etc. The word count for the entire thing, with and without excerpts, will be done after that is finished.

I'll watch Sanctuary while you're gone, I'm taking a break from things for the moment anyway. Son's been having one of his moods where he wants to read EVERYTHING on the computer screen...

	Good! My husband bawled me out for not eating while I was going nuts compiling the synopses for NR... Sometimes our life partners need to remind us writers/authors to EAT once in a while... They are pretty handy in a case like that! LOL

	They're handy for other things too, but this is a FAMILY SHOW....

	Hubby was the same with me when I was doing the synopses for NR... He said if he had known that I had NOT eaten before suppertime, he would have unplugged the computer and risked getting hit over the head with a frying pan! Yup, I'm definitely feeling tremors and the epicenter is in the Valley... Hehehehehehehehehehehe.........

	Let's face it, VE. When we're writing, we need keepers.

	Yup, we do. Thankfully we both have the perfect men for us... Skywise and Hubby are wonderful men and they're lucky to have us!
