DAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! *rushes in and falls on the floor in a weepy mess* HOW DID I MISS THIS??? Is it still open? Can I still reserve a slot? Please??? *begs you from her knees*

@Daeus

@winter-rose *staggers* Oh my goodness!!! Ladies and gentlemen, the only word I can think of to describe this is WOW!

@daeus Adios!
@graciegirl I’m still going.

@graciegirl @dragon-snapper Signing off.

@Winter-Rose One little tip about breaking from your WIP…I took a several-month unintentional hiatus from my book, and when I came back to it, I couldn’t remember half of the things I was going to change to make it better. Certain spots I was going to add a bit of dialogue, or a symbolic moment, or whatever, but it had been so long that I forgot…[Read more]

@GracieGirl Aw, the poor little thing. I will pray. My family has two beloved cats, and I can only imagine how we’d feel if either of them was having an issue.

@LifeOfKatie Coolio! I was just poking around on it—Looks pretty good. 🙂

@graciegirl @daeus I’ll be working on my WIP.

@graciegirl I’ll join you. I’m doing some grammar checking and such.

@winter-rose It’s fine to wait for the second draft before you take a break. Probably best actually.

@Daeus I’m pretty sure I could reasonably manage it. Send it on. 😀

If only I did know some British people. That’d be real fun.

@GracieGirl Aw, poor guy. I’ll be praying.

*cringes at all the beautiful sensible comments and retreats inside her dragonish shell*

@Winter-Rose umm… unfortunately the longest break I’ve ever taken, with all eight* novels I’ve finished, is… um… one night.
Literally. One night between novels and then I can’t wait any longer. I probably should take longer breaks… don’t kill me…[Read more]

@Winter-Rose @GracieGirl thank you both for your prayers, and yes, Gracie— I’ll pray. 😉 I don’t imagine something like that comes without a lot of emotional turmoil in the family too.

@daeus I have sent it to you. Be brutal. Fight hard against poor literature. 😉 May the force be with you.

@dragon-snapper @winter-rose Oh yeah, whatever you do, keep working on other projects! If you get out of your writing groove, it can be very hard to get back in. I probably should have clarified before, but by taking a break, I meant taking a break from that particular project, let it brew for a while, and work on something else you may have had…[Read more]

@daeus Sounds good. I think you have my email from last time.

Oh! I forgot! And I’m looking for a Brittish beta-reader too. I’ve got two characters who are modern Britts, and I have very little idea how modern Britts talk. If you happen to know any Brittish people who might be interested, I would be appreciative.

@daeus No, I can do the second one. At first it seemed like you were going to do three main groups, because you had nearing 9 beat-readers. But the second one is fine. I’ll be on vacation soon anyways, so this works best.
Will do.

@dragon-snapper Okay, well, you can be part of the first round if you think that would be best.

Go ahead and send me the manuscript right away.
