What I'm writing: Same, but not old--part 3 of my series. Ended up with the curious number of 1111 words.

What I'm reading: Out of the Shadow, by J.S. Winn. Reading ebooks on the computer = not my favorite thing though the story holds up.

Didn't get to do any writing today. It took longer to reformat my story which I'm getting the rights back to. Have to send it to a freelance editor on Wednesday, so couldn't put it off.

Didn't do any reading either.

Hope you're feeling better.

Day 27:
What I'm writing?
Today's total word count: 1,022

What I'm reading?
Chapters Completed: None, but at least I met my writing goal. ☺

Not too shabby considering I was at THREE dance recitals today. These were at the nursing homes, so the parents don’t get to watch. We have to supervise our kids when they aren’t dancing, but mine mostly colored, so I was able to write. Yay!

@Barbara~

Woo hoo all 1's is good stuff! I agree, reading e-books on the computer is not my fave either. Although, I edit documents there--it somehow seems different.

@Beth~

Hey, I'm doing the same thing. Trying to reformat a prior e-book back into document format for re-publishing. Big headache. Any suggestions?

@Aidee~

Thanks for the well wishes. I think I'm on the mend. Hugs. I love a great novella. I'm a big fan of those. Keep me posted on how it turns out, okay? And, I kind of always wanted to visit a psychic but I'm a little afraid.

@Lynnette~

Yay on the writing goal and I love that the recitals are at nursing homes. Every time my kid's class visits one to sing or perform something--I end up crying. The folks are just so happy to see the kids. And, did you you get the private message I sent you one day last week? It was kind of a long one? Just checking. Hugs!
