Just a quick hello - Today I have been WRITING!!!! OMG YAY!!!!! Lol. My life is so crazy, it's like a miracle. My latest adventure began last night when my dog threw her back out in the middle of the night and today ended up on doggy morphine. She's hurting, but she will be ok. She is the sweetest old Chow Chow. A total lovebug. So anyway. I added a ticker for my new WiP on the side there... thought that might inspire me to at least write something every day throughout the summer. Today I had a good, long, quiet writing time, which I may get once or twice a week this summer - managed to add 1102 words (yay!) so I almost doubled my initial word count. Lol. It looks sad, but 4% is better than 2% and every little bit helps. I'm very excited about this new fantasy/fairy tale! It's a new genre for me and I am loving it!
BTW - Don't forget to sign up for WriteOnCon, the free writer's conference hosted by some of our bloggy besties if you haven't already!!!

Sorry about your dog. But congratulations on your writing progress! Have a great weekend.
Congrats on getting all that writing done - it's amazing how hard it is to find time in the summer!
Hope your dog feels better soon!
I'm really debating about WriteOnCon... I have to see what my schedule looks like for that period. August is a full month for me... or is it in July. Hm. Guess I need to go look again. Anyhoo... Glad to see you back! And writing! (one of us should be ;)
Check out my BEA BONANZA BOOK GIVEAWAY!
oh poor pups!
Congrats on getting some writing done!! That's awesome!
I don't write ya so the con is not for me...too bad.
I hope your dog gets better very soon! :-D
And congrats on adding to your word count! You are so right—Every little bit helps.

My dog has the same problem! Poor puppies. :(
And I'm always curious about word tickers. How do you know when you start a novel how many words it'll be? Are you just guessing, or do you have it planned out? Is it a ballpark figure, or a definite line that you can't cross? I'm too unorganized to do stuff like that. :D
It's great to *see* you again. Hope the summer is being kind otherwise. Congrats on the writing. Sorry about the pup. I'm glad she's going to be ok.
Bethany - It is a total guess for me based on the fact that most YA is 45K to 80K, so I figured 50K is good to shoot for. I really have no idea!
So sorry to hear about your doggy, but glad its gonna be okay! Also, always glad to hear when someone gets to write! Good luck and Happy Writing!
Aw, I hope your dog feels better. And your writing progress is awesome!! Congrats!!
