New Template, New Chapter....

The new template is up. I hope it's a better choice than my last pink disaster. Hey, I love pink just as much as the next girl, but it was too much. There is such a thing as too much pink, you know.

Also, I've posted some of CHAPTER TWO at Becoming Shadows. I tell you, it was fun to chuck the forced crap I'd written over the weekend for the intriguing (at least for me it is) direction I'm going in. It's only 800+ words, but it's 800+ words I feel good about.

On the homefront: Nigel has started referring to me as "The Authoress." He says he finds it sexy when I'm sauntering around with pad and pen, scribbling ramdom thoughts and then making a mad dash to the computer to write down the gem that had just revealed itself to me. At least he's supportive. It's not many men out there who will massage your neck as you type, and forgo sex, just so you can Edit.

I, blessed.

I didn't mind the pink. It was cute.

You're brave for posting your chapters. I wouldn't be able to post what I write in public, unless it was an excerpt from a published book.

I liked the whole idea of blogging 50,000 words of this novel, but I've already gotten ten emails from readers telling me that they liked the first chapter and that they would buy Becoming Shadows if it were a published novel.

And that has me thinking, maybe I better reconsider sharing this book with the world, and try for actual publication. Fat chance, right?
