There is my example of a photo wall; I have room for more too. I like to be surrounded by visual stimulation and displaying the ones I love. I like wall photos better as I have enough to dust then to add a whole shelf of stand up frames.
Saturday I was floating after my critique session with the writing professional. I certainly didn't go to it looking for justification but she was so positive with me I left with renewed energy. She gave me some great editing tips to bring down the word count without worrying about pulling full scenes. She also said to stop worrying about word count! She said I got everything needed in an ending, and said it was well written. Actually we had an interesting convo about ending to early without tying up ever end but I like the last scene too much. She indicated she was for hire for grammar editing which is excellent, I will need that desperately. Missy has started re-reading from the beginning and assisting me in checking that all the story meshes, things I may have missed and what the reader my question. We wrote down some little things not needed and a few things I need to add. I am ready to start editing and excited to do it!
I did not go to the time trials which bummed me out a bit on Sunday. Racing is really calling out to me which is making me impatient and cranky. Somehow I need to motivate Dan; he admits he has no interest in cars anymore which leaves me some what in a rough spot.
Tony has a German radio station on in our office; they are playing OLP and played several other Canadian artists earlier. Cancon loved the world over! I heard One to One earlier on BOB but remembered that they are from Ottawa. Andrew is back from Germany but I haven't talked to him yet to hear if he saw The Posies in Regensburg.
Nina and I are getting closer to booking our flights and hotels in Nova Scotia. It doesn't look like she will be there with me the entire time but I am fine with that- I need a lot of time to take notes. It will come up quickly; I am immersed in Nova Scotia books and maps. I did the same when I went to Montreal.
Not much else on my mind today. I taught well today which is always something I stress about. Kinda sleepy, I love talking to my SMB pals late night but my old woman need for sleep is kicking in.
