s what FedEx says of Ornithology.
Yikes. This last week has been crazy. I’m hoping to sleep a little for once!
But after that, it’s all revisions, all the time. The good thing about entering the GH is it gives me a very firm deadline for when I want my revisions to be done–something I wouldn’t have otherwise.
What do you use for motivation? And is anyone else as tired right now as I am?

Congratulations! Hope you have a restful weekend.

Congratulations! That is so exciting. I used nanowrimo to give me a deadline and it worked really well. Sadly, I had nothing GH worthy to show for it. I can’t believe you entered two books. That’s so awesome.

Hurrah! Good luck!

Thanks everyone! Lenora, I can’t believe I entered two books, either. Ornithology needs to be completely rewritten. My head hurts with the amount of work that needs to be done on that book.

What a superstar to be able to enter two manuscripts. I smell a double GH finalist!

CM, you know how much I loved both of your partials I’ve read—but I really, really, really want to read Ornithology. Okay, I lied. I also really, really, really want to read Legalese.
I won’t even torture you and force you to read TACOM. Pinky swear.
Congrats on entering two manuscripts (what a feat!) and that they’re both delivered, too.
Like you, knowing that I have a date where TACOM needs to be done by has given me motivation to step it up. Plus, I really want to requery in January.

Congrats on winning the Golden Pen! And the GH… wait, that was premature. On the other hand, this way I’ll be able to say I said it first…
