And Relax
Wow. Yesterday was just…wow. I was a bundle of nerves until the book actually came out, but last night I was finally able to relax. It’s done, gone and people (I hope) are reading it. It’s a strange feeling.
But now I need to get refocused on Sven. He gave me some slack room this week, but no more. Today I need to get going and do some major writing. I realized I had a problem with the chapter I’m currently working on, so I need to take the last half and push it forward. I’ll be adding in several new scenes that will make the build up a bit slower.
So today, I’ll be writing. I hope everyone has a great Saturday!

Hi Maya! Yes, I’m a TRW member, but I’ve since moved to NS. I keep my membership because I can’t bare to be apart from everyone. I’m needy that way LOL!
Julia, it is perfect weather for writting. I had to cut 4 pages on the chapter I was working on because I was going in the wrong direction. I’m now just about back to where I was.
As long as it rains, I’ll write!

Harry Potter is not the only one I can blame for the mucho grande bags under my eyes this morning…
Haylie and Kamran must take partial blame. I’m only 1/2 way through but ay carumba — hot hot hot. I’d be further along, but I’m getting no cooperation from kids who keep demanding their mother — My God, didn’t I just feed you five hours ago!! — Anyway, I shall delve into the last half tonight when I put them to bet at 4pm, ahem, I mean 8pm.
Release day brings up some weird emotions, eh? Can’t quite describe them except a mix of relief, anxiety, calm, dread and naked.

Huge congrats, Christine! I can’t wait to read it.

I loved it, it rocked my world Christine. Sven is pleased with me, I kicked his ass last night with 2500 words and I almost finished Journey. I am forcing myself to peel away from Harry Potter and I will finish Journey off tonight. I want to wow Sven by completing my first goal.

Sven is really ticked at me, but I couldn’t resist reading something about BOND and TIES and hot aliens and all. Whew! Congrats on a smoking hot release, Christine!!
