I didn't make it to the end of the book. 22 new pages isn't bad though. I still have 3 scenes to write to have a complete. Due to my word count being low even with all the pages (I write with a lot of dialogue and white space on the page) I will probably need closer to 215 pages at the end of this. But right now I'm just focused on getting those missing scenes roughed out so I can start back at the beginning.
No big plans for me except to write this week. I'd love to steal away to the gym to climb so I'm hoping to squeeze that in somehow if I can find a climbing partner. I still haven't decided what to do on Wednesday night when hubby is up at Timberline Lodge on Mount Hood, either.
A few of my friends are heading to the Star Wars Celebration IV in LA. I had hotel reservations and was all set to go for the entire thing, but when I got a June 1st deadline I knew it would never work. I'm going to have to settle for the trip reports when they get back. I'm sure it'll be an awesome time and the Force will be with them.
Tonight is the season finale of Heroes so at 9 o'clock I will be stationed on the couch with my gaze glued to the TV. I hope to have most of my pages done before that, but even if I don't, I won't be distracted. I've been wondering if this is the night Peter gets his scar!
Speaking of TV, in your opinion, which television show had the best season finale?

Heroes.
Oh... wait... that's tonight :-)
Congrats on the diet, BTW.
Thanks, Marianne. This diet is actually working. And I'm not that hungry compared to other diets I've tried. There's just no way I can eat all they want you to eat even though it's good for you. Just hope it keeps up! I need to fit into those clothes for RWA in Dallas!
You are cookin'! That's great to be at page 189 already. Way to go! :)
I haven't been watching tv because of my own May 31 deadline. I will be having a Lost marathon on June 1! :)
22 pages is great! I'm sure everything will work out for you. Wonderful news on the diet! WOW! I am so proud of you!
22 pages, 5 pounds....all right!!! You're totally rock'in You'll get to 215 pages before you know it. Awesome.
As for Wednesday night, you have to do whatever will inspire you to write.
Michelle - because of my deadline that's why i'm down to 1 hour of television a week. Am addicted to Heroes so that's my one guilty pleasure. Good luck with your book.
Brandy - thanks! I just hope I can keep it up!!!
Dru - thank you, too. As for Wednesday night, that's a good thing to consider--what will inspire me to write. Ponder this, I will!
WTG with the writing, Melissa. Like you, I am unable to attend C4 due to work demands. Waaah!
I just started watching "Heroes" during a weekend marathon and am only on Episode 4, so we taped the finale and will watch it latuh. I love it! I am also overdue to watch the finale of "Prison Break," to which I've been totally addicted (will download via iTunes soon). The finale -- both season and series -- of "Gilmore Girls" was truly inadequate, IMO, to the spirit of the enterprise. Plus, they didn't bring back Dean to save Rory from that dork Logan. LOL
We can commiserate being stuck at home this week.
Oh, you'll have to let me know what you think of Volume 1 of Heroes. I only say one episode of Prison Break and I've only seen one episode of Gilmore Girls too. I don't have a lot of time for TV and we don't have a DVR so i don't watch much. Hope the Prison Break finale is a good one since the other disappointed!
