Anyway, in case you hadn't figured it out yet, this post is not going to be very substantial. But I guess I will share some cool things with you.
1. I have (mostly) figured out what I want to do for my post this Wednesday. It's extremely similar to what I did for my third blogiversary post, but I figured no one would remember that. Wait, except I just told you. Hmm. Anyway, still figuring out the exact way I want to go about it, but it will be done!
2. In other writing news, I ACTUALLY GOT MY REWRITE OF CHAPTER ONE DONE. Sorry for the caps. It's that exciting. Chapter one was being a bitch (or maybe Jordan was...). But anyway, I got it done and now I can move on. I ended up not writing that little setting snippet yet, mostly because there was way too much going on in the chapter already. I may try to squeeze it in the second chapter, but I think that chapter is already perfect so we'll see. I may just try to write it first and then see where it can fit in.
3. I got my wedding dress! I'm incredibly low maintenance--I only tried on two dresses and ended up going with the first one I tried. Plus I'm thinking it should be fairly easy to pack for the trip to Vegas. Woot. Oh! I didn't even want a veil but my consultant and fiance gained up on me and I bought one anyway (I had no idea he cared about that sort of thing, either). I'm still not sure if I actually want it, but I got it for half off, so it's not a huge deal.
4. I made these awesome brownies over the weekend even though I'm trying to lose weight. They have a peanut butter swirl and Reese's pieces. Because why not? I made my sister keep most of them. Most of them...
5. We recently got a new mattress and a new bedspread so I may or may not be trying to redecorate my apartment. It's difficult because there's not a lot of space in here. But I'm hoping to purge some of the stuff we don't need. And maybe put some shelves up. I've been dying to reclaim my desk to actually use, you know, as a desk. Right now it's on my fiance's side of the bed and is just covered in junk. Having an actual writing space would be awesome. But it's going to be a slow process. We have too much stuff and nowhere to put it!
Well, I think I'll leave it there before I start to ramble too much. I'll be back on Wednesday for the extravaganza!
Your brownies look delicious! Congrats on finishing your edits to the first chapter. :-)
ReplyDeleteThose brownies look amazing. I would have eaten the entire pan.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing that first chapter. The all-caps is entirely justified. And congrats on finding your wedding dress. That has to be a huge relief.
I'd eat those brownies.
ReplyDeleteGlad you got the first chapter figured out.
And I'll just act surprised when I stop by on Wednesday.
Ooh, you should post a picture of your wedding dress; I love wedding dresses! And those brownies look really good too.
ReplyDeleteCaps are totally understandable! And congrats on finding that wedding dress.
ReplyDeleteThe brownies look soooooo good. And CONGRATS ON CHAPTER ONE! w00t!
ReplyDeleteYay for your wedding dress and for rewriting chapter one! When I've had to rewrite chapter one, I'd celebrate. :)
ReplyDeleteI like my brownies pure and nut free. :)
ReplyDeleteFirst chapters are always the worse, especially frustrating because most of the time you have to go back and rewrite it again once you've finished your book.
