~The Latest~
I've been a busy little bee. Once I got home from work Friday night, I got back to work on everything else that needed to be done. I have so many things scheduled and/or started for this next month on the blog. With the Scarlet Read-Along, I knew I needed to get ahead there. So every last one of the posts for the event has been started, and all I need to do for them is add in my thoughts. I was also able to go through my online shop and get that organized. It was such a mess. I'm finally getting to my winter clothes too.
Now that a bunch of things are DONE and I feel like I've accomplished something, I am going to relax and hang with a friend today. Then it's back to work tomorrow!
Much love to all!

Love the collection of news on the internet - especially the character worksheet is fantastic! I mean, it's not as though I ever forgot one of my protagonists hair color or anything, because I do have lists for the basics, BUT that one beats my little make-shift list by at least half a light-year (says, the sci-fi enthusiast in me).
ReplyDeleteThere are times when I can't remember a certain side character's physical attributes, so it's a good reminder. :) It's better than anything I've come up with too. :P
DeleteYay you for getting stuff accomplished! It really does feel good, doesn't it? I'm going to draft out the Scarlet posts that I can, plus schedule some reviews and stuff so that in November I can concentrate on actually reading Scarlet and doing NaNo - eek! Have fun today! <3
ReplyDeleteOh yes, it feels good. :) I've got most of November started so phew! I might need to work on a few things for December though so that I don't have to worry once the read-along is over. :) I will!
