When everything goes right!

You know there are some days you are just blessed! And so far today has been one of them. My daughter woke up this morning, got dressed, brushed her teeth, combed her hair (yes, combed it), made her own lunch and packed her bookbag! To say I was stunned was an understatement! Made my heart glow! She's growing up! Then she got an "A" on her history paper that she worked so very hard on! Yeah!

Then, at the grocery store today, I found everything I needed to make homemade spagetti sauce from scratch! Ah, the joys of finding everything you want! And I found my hard cider! Woo hoo! Tonight will be a good night!

My wip is going well. I'm up to 42, 987 words and I'm half way done with the book! I know exactly where I need to go next. Exactly what I need to write. Everything with this book is coming together so well! I cannot even believe it myself. I thought it would be hard, but it isn't. I had done all my prep works months ago. Character sheets, premise, mythology, story questions, all of it! It paid off big time, but now the story is flowing. It's fluid, and I can see the entire thing in my head. If I keep up current word count I'll be finished by mid-november. Target word count 80,000 words.

Now, dinner is almost done. My laundry is complete, and the lint dragon left me alone for once.

Today, so far, has been a good day!!!
Hugs,
Michelle

Michelle,
Glad you had a good day! Don't productive days make you feel accomplished. Keep plugging away at your book.
BTW, what kind of book is it? I am having to write a lot now and that's my fault for not getting the book done when I had the time. Instead I just fooled around and put it off. So now I'm between a rock and a hard place. Oh well. I loved the fall pictures. I got a new digital camera and I hope to get some photos posted on my blog soon. Don't have much time now.

Well, damnit I hit a snag! I'm going to have to think on it. This is the Rose Romance and I have decided that maybe he won't die but maybe he'll be kissed by the Goddess and brought back to life or something.

But my big problem is that the heroine in what I have written so far really has no reason to stay. Damn it! I'm going to have to fix that!!!

Yikes! A snag already!
Hugs,
Michelle
