Getting a lot done. Besides having my proofreader re-evaluate a chapter I rewrote and adding some other finishing touches to the manuscript myself, nearly ready to send it back to my editor for a final eval. Then to send in to Westbow. Hoping I have all the things in order. A lady who looked it over last week told me a lot of the sentences are short (that’s per Jim’s recommendation). So a few more decisions. Maybe can read my just-printed copy, latest edited version of it tomorrow while watching Alyssa during Alan’s birthday party. (The boys were excited tonight to open a few boxes of several of their school books for the fall). God is good.
A lot of late nights lately. Good meeting with Pastor Russell yesterday. Many hours of work fine-tuning the writing project. Think things are coming together. Got ahold of Lisa, who’ll look over one of the chapters this weekend for me. And Jessie, who I’m going to meet tonight. Think she’s really going to help me out. Need to go shopping for Dana today!! Birthday Saturday!
Great day….a fun, fun time doing things with our boys and Alyssa while Dana/Dr. and haircut. Visited with some friends at Chuck E. Cheese in the morning and golfed in the backyard with the boys while Alyssa had a “nap.” Still haven’t heard from Jim, Christian-Writer.com. From what it sounds like, he’s doing me a superb edit job. Just love him and his wife. Dana brought us TB for supper, just watched Rain Man AGAIN with her. Can’t remember, so always a new movie to me.
Great week. Been forgetting to blog. Exciting for what we got done. Website/hosting up and running now. Just waiting on my edited manuscript to be returned. Evidently my submitted story needed a lot of work- thank You, Lord, for directing me to Christian-Writer-Help.com. They are fantastic and will give me a video trailer, press release, and facebook/social media page later. Fantastic one on one days Tuesdays/Thursdays with my daughter but tend to not get a lot of work done those days. Tomorrow, a hurricane-makeup day with no school, I get to interact with our boys. Well, that’s what it is. . .and may get together with some friends tomorrow at some point. They’re fixing to have a baby boy in the next week or so. Yahoo!
Right arm is sore today, just mowed. Have a fellow working on a website for me, so we’ll see how that goes. Possibly a logo, too. So, God-willing….
God is good all the time, even when we don’t understand.
Working like crazy. Well not crazy but almost. Book’s being edited now and parts rewritten. Not as good a writer as thought. Working on developing a website and will try to blog more. My forward’s being written by my beloved pastor. Things really starting to come together. PTL!!
What a day, what a day! Short night last night but very productive. Excellent Bible Study at Panera early and then accomplished so many goals – even time to do a few things with my 5-year old daughter. Finished a movie now. Oh, great supper earlier.
Jesus is Faithful!
A lady from church helped me edit the story, now the editors at Christian-Writer-Help.com are putting their touches on it (later they’ll give me a press release, social media fan page, and book trailer–so excited!), and a Pastor from church is doing the forward. Thank You, Jesus!
