I bit of progress on 25. I crushed some narrative down to a couple of sentences and turned some more into a scene. Another scene and a bit more crushing and I'll get close to the end of the chapter.

I bit more done on 25, revising this chapter is taking forever. I didn't realize how icky the rough draft was. The events in the plot are fine, but it was all narrative with nothing really playing out in front of the reader.

Because books.

I'm working up to writing, finishing a few last editing projects, and sort of letting the next chapter brew in my head. By next week, I'll be rolling up my sleeves, and I have to say, I'm so excited to get back to it.

Have a drabble topic: open .

Hee-- film rights inquiry on the Carmen book.

Probably nothing will come of it, but still... fun!

Here's hoping for the next Big Fat Greek Bitch, Barb. Damn Piven...I really love that movie, no joke, but thanks to him, I still think of it as Big Fat Greek Bitch.

That is fun, Barb! And it shows someone's already doing their job over there!

“Not dead yet!”

I'm just floored at how on top of things Adrienne is. There had been film interest when I sold the book the first time as well as foreign translation interest, but my first agent never followed through with those inquiries and I didn't know enough to know how to push for it. It's one of those sides of the industry that's harder to learn about.
