Habits

Monster #1 hates to floss. Too bad, because he's getting the braces in a couple of weeks and he's going to get into the habit of flossing if it kills both of us. Basically, my argument is this -- I never had braces, so I'm stuck with the overbite and slightly misaligned teeth. If I'm spending four grand or so on a beautiful, straight smile for him . . . he's going to take care of it.

I've let my grading nightly habit slide this week because I've been easing the Monsters into a new routine at home. I will definitely have to pick that back up next week (if not this weekend).

I'm trying to get back into the blogging habit.

Emailed my editor in a panic that my release date is looming (February) and I'm having nightmares about pages upon pages of edits to complete . . . she very nicely emailed back to talk me off that ledge. Told me I had nothing to worry about. Honest.

I will not make panicked emails to the editor a habit.

Honest.

Oh, Wow!

Received my blurb form from my editor to add key words . . . and I have an ISBN number! How cool is that?!

Next week is Spirit Week and Homecoming. Hate to tell the rest of the high school . . . but my homeroom is so going to win the overall spirit award! We have top secret plans!

Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

What I'm Up To

Updating my blurb form for WMM, set for release in February. I have to come up with key words for a web search. This is hard.

Here's what I have so far:

suspense
hostage
reconciliation
deputy
detective
baby
southern
sultry

Any suggestions?
