Hey! It's your weekly update! And I must confess it's been quite the week in the "real world". I nearly had my Kindergarten classroom ready to go when I was asked to switch to 3rd and 4th grade. I have been vying for this position since May so while I'm thrilled to have FINALLY gotten it, nearly all my free time has been moving my room again. It's gorgeous though, might be the best classroom setup I've ever done! I also have recently gotten back into the Sims after not playing it since high school. It's been a mindless way to decompress after all this back to school prep and covid craziness. I found out about this thing called the 100 baby challenge (You aim to have 100 babies in as few generations as possible) I'm at 2/100 so far. I'm definitely a better real life mom than a Sim mom, thank goodness. I've attached a hilarious YouTube series below if you are interested in all the work that it entails. LOL. Okay, so let's actually talk about writing.
I am editing WAR DISTORTION! I made over 200 notes on what needs more detail and tweaking. I'm trying to do two chapters a day in the hopes that I will be done in the middle of the month and ready to have some beta readers look at it. Trying to be realistic that I'm probably going to be busy next week once school starts officially. I've done 4 out of 21 chapters so far. PitMad is Thursday and OMG I'm not ready...like I need to write my Query letter and synopsis tomorrow (No Sims until that's done! LOL) I also have to be in a meeting most of the day Thursday as well so I'm going to have to strategically send those tweets. (Or take a pee break or something) Going in with low expectations that way I can be pleasantly surprised or learn from it. I plan on Querying Semi Sweet no matter what. I should have more to report on this next week. :) Finally, I need to STOP getting cool ideas when I need to finish series and do things that are going to make me money. I have another idea for a stand alone New Adult Romance. Maybe I make it a series? Heart Breathings talked about various stories that take place in the same world. Maybe it could be another story in Denver? Too bad I live in CONNECTICUT! Haha...Apparently a trip is in my future. In the meantime, I'm going to make notes so I can come back to it. I am trying to not get depressed, but I'm seeing all my writing time about to die off and I want to CRY. Pray for me, Kay
