March 30, 2007
The last few days have been super busy and I haven’t had a chance to really sit down and work on the edits. But I’ve kept them in the back of my mind the entire time.
So much so, that I had sort of a breakthrough. I came up with a great idea for the time travel to up the stakes a bit. I had asked a friend of mine what I should do to make my hero more likable and he said - “If he’s kind of a bad guy, then introduce an even badder one.”
I got to thinking about that and I have the perfect character to mold and shape into the “badder” guy. hehe So I was bouncing this idea off Best Good Friend and asked her what she thought. She liked it and then I asked her, “But, how do I pull it off?”
She gave me a great idea on how to do just that. So I’ve been itching to get my hands back on the book and write it. Knowing I couldn’t get to it for another day, I scribbled some notes to myself.
I did manage to get some work on it done last night, but fatigue hit me hard and heavy again. I had to shut it down when my eyes were drooping and I was falling asleep at the keyboard.
The patter of rain outside didn’t help matters much. It just makes me want to sleep. One of my favorite things in the world is listening to it rain outside while snuggled under the covers.
Hopefully I can get back to work tonight. I wanted to have all the edits done this week, but that surely didn’t happen, did it?
If only I didn’t have to sleep…

Sounds terrific. And, regarding your comment on my blog about the idea for a 1900s story — you can never have too many ideas, just too little time!

Sounds like a great idea, Mik. Good luck with both writing and editing
Yes, if we only didn’t have to sleep…
