This is IT for me with this series. Book 1 was supposed to be a stand alone novel but "someone" neatly dropped the idea of having a sequel to it on my lap and Brain loved it! Smiley I don't care if my audience wants to know the backstory of "so and so's" grandparents, parents, their cousins or whatnot.... I am DONE with this family after this and plan on wrapping things up so tightly that if anyone tries to untie them, it will go KABLOOEY!  Smiley

So far, so good. I've added in a bit of a better description of the leading lady so that's out of the way. The bit I added into Chapter 2 to make things a little more "teary" and logical flows really well where I slapped it. Continuing on in Chapter 2 now....

Smiley Sorry. But it ain't my fault that you left a perfect lead in to a sequel at the end of #1!

We're going out to eat. We'll be back in a while.

Yeah, STOOPID over here kinda left things TOO wide open when she thought she was wrapping everything up in a bow.  Smiley DUH...  My own dumb fault... Oh well, at least a few more q's from Book 1 will be answered and all! Smiley

Gotcha. I'll be here for another hour or so. I'm only in the middle of Chapter Seven's revisions at the moment so I'll be idle but I'll be here.

See you later. Cheesy

We're back. And if it wasn't me, it would have been someone else, probably a fan. Just be sure to tie things up nice and tight or people will be pestering you to find out "what happened next?!"

True!! Or, after I had let the manuscript "perk" for a while, realized that I had left things WIDE OPEN and started it without a gentle nudge in that direction.  Smiley Since I didn't want to leave some of the characters behind anyway, Book 2 seemed like the perfect solution.

I'm still doing the full reread... I'm being VERY careful now that I'm into the "over 18" stuff.... Son has been ULTRA good so I'm not complaining... He'll be getting his computer time at the regular time tonight. There's school in the morning, it's the second to last full week of it before summer vacation starts.

I haven't done any writing today, just a little tweaking. I'm hoping that I'll be able to get back at it tomorrow. Skywise's eye is still giving him trouble and I honestly don't know if he'll be going to work tomorrow so plans are up in the air.

I've been tweaking here and there, no actual writing. I'm done the reread and have added a couple of things here and there, took a couple of things out and am contemplating a little more polishing on the days that I won't be able to write this week.

On that note, I have a little boy who wants his computer time and my eyes are starting to protest. I'm going to head out for the night and hand things over to Son.

I'll be back at my usual school morning time. Have a great night everyone! Cheesy

We've got a nice, gentle rain going. I hope it keeps up all night. Thunderstorms we don't need but the ground is starting to dry out so it's time for rain.

The rain has stopped for the moment but more is coming. Just hope we don't have a downpour. Really don't need any of those.

The rain will "probably" be here in less than an hour and since "The Clone Wars" is over, I'm heading out.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Morning. I'm here between editing/polishing and other things today. It's a typical school day here.

Morning.  We'll be heading into town in a bit. Skywise's paycheck needs to be deposited. After we get back I'll be here for the day. We did get some rain last night but no downpours.

Gotcha Penth. I'll be here but quiet, I'm trying to do some more additions and revisions to Book 2. I've also updated the dedication for Book 1... Someone is NOT going to like it when they finally see it... Oh well, if they had SUPPORTED me instead of demeaning my work, getting snarky by posting some crap about me being "jealous" of other authors, and basically rolling their eyes each time I posted something about my writing, their name would have been on the list instead of being left out!

Back to Book 2 before I get a headache......

Writing time is over for now. I managed to get about 2 pages worth of new stuff added. Brain mushy! Smiley

Hubby is quietly watching TV so I'm going to see if I can get a little more added before Son gets home. I want to wrap up this scene so I can get ON with other stuff in the story!

New pics in FB Penth, whenever you want to go have a peek. Cheesy Pink rose profile. Cheesy

Hubby is gone but Son is home so I may not get that scene finished. *SIGH* I'm almost there. I would have been finished had Hubby NOT come down from a nap when he did because I was on a REALLY good roll. Roll Eyes

Oh well, at least I know how to wrap it up....

I'm getting nowhere with Book 4 and the Queen wants a cuddle so I'm going to crash with her and maybe I can be creative afterward. Be back in a while.

I'm back too. I got up a while ago and I've been trying to get a little something useful in the way of housework done. *sigh* It never ends.
