Day One-Not smoking

Well...I haven't exploded by spontaneous combustion. My house is still in one piece and well if the other people in my house are not exactly happy they are at least sleeping peacefully in their beds minus the sugar plums.

I have lots of books and lots of veggies to keep my mind occupied for the first couple of days. I'll be going to bed early-it's the lack of stimulant to keep me going. However, I do believe I drank two full pots of coffee today. Cannot be good for my liver.

Picked up an interesting book today called "The Rule of Four" very interesting beginning and not my normal "type" reading material but the title intrigued me. The subject intrigued me. *note* Janie, you need to look at this one. Here is a link to the book at Amazon.

Also, I have finished the next newest section in Spells. I am very pleased with the actual story line now from the beginning. I think it has a hook. I'm trying to teach myself not to give away all the goodies up front. (very hard thing to do when 'you' know all the answers but the reader does not.)

Anyway...gotta get back to writing. Just a quick update.

P.S. for any of you writer's out there here is a piece of advise. Do not do anything while you physically write that is a habit. Meaning eat cookies, smoke, drink, etc. Because if you choose to change those habits it can hurt your writing for a while. I ended up not smoking when I wrote several weeks ago because I knew I wasn't going to be smoking for much longer and rewarded myself by going outside. So today hasn't been that bad, but I have friends who cannot write if they are not drinking or smoking. So don't start that habit. Just some good fyi...
