Monday is the best day
Well, not really. But I want to stay optimistic!
Today I got my second round of edits from my editor for The Bond That Ties Us. I took a quick peek at her comments and I have to agree. I really love the fact that I’m learning a lot from her, and that my story is growing and becoming better than before. So tonight I will be focusing in on adding more setting elements to the story and adding emotional heights to my love scenes.
This means that my Halloween story will have to wait tonight. I’ll try and get chapter one finished today at lunch (actually as soon as I’m done this blog entry) which will let me focus on the edits. It sounds like everyone else is really busy too.
I also finally got to see Casino Royal this weekend. I really loved Craig as Bond. He took the role in a different direction from the other movies, and I think the franchise really needed that. I can’t wait to see him in the next one. As long as he promises to wear the Speedos again. *drool*

I love the running scene at the start of Casino Royal. You have to watch the extra’s on the DVD about that to gain some extra appreciation for that part of the movie.
I have to say that I’m a bit envious when I read that you are getting such excellent feedback on your book. I really wish I was far enough ahead in my own story that I could have some expert advice so that I could figure out if I’m doing it right.

Glad you liked Casino Royale too.. and what woman didn’t like that scene?!

I like Craig as the new JB too. A little rough around the edges and looks sexy in a tux - ok and speedos…..

I got Casino Royale this weekend but have yet to watch it, I’m itching to see the only “straight” guy to pull off a speedo. Or so I’ve heard.

We haven’t seen it yet–That Man hasn’t said anything about it, and I’m a Sean Connery girl. We’ll see. Best of luck with the edits!!

Danny Craig…..drooooollllll…….
is it out on DVD? Please say no. Because it would be SERIOUSLY hazardous to my work deadlines right now. I’ll be playing, pausing, rewind…play….pause….rewind….play…pause….drool…..

The answer to my question is posted - it is not as easy as you think.

Good luck with round 2 edits!!
And I love Mondays. Fresh new week to begin chewing at all those goals!!
