Sounds like something that would exist in the same world as nerf herders.
But what *is* a snarf?
I think Lizabeth is a Special Ranger. And I think she'd rather hold her hand in an open flame rather than go to Apache Springs ... again ...
Rosie, when are you going to submit one of your stories?
If you figger it out, let me know.
I really don't have anything done enough to submit, sadly. I finished my NaNo novel the first year, but it's not even resurrectable, though I may steal a few of the characters someday. The only other year I finished, it was a totally self-indulgent kinda fake journal...nothing publishable. ;-)
Other stuff is mostly bits and chunks, some better than others.
Maybe by the end of the year I'll have something...if I don't just goof off. I'm a master of procrastination and slacking.
My marigolds are all blooming now! Dunno what happened at first.
Now if I could just get the geraniums hung by the gate, and maybe even put more hanging pots by the door...
You can't have too many flowers. Er...almost.
I'm thinkin' everyone else has a Friday night life...
Oh well. Got tunes. Got story. Got a dog that thinks I'm great. Who could ask for anything more?
Not really a life, just a loooong drive back from the airport. Talon got here though so it's just fine with me :-)
I think that qualifies as a life...
Oh, and that's utter frap. Look at all the wonderful things you've done with your place! And in such a short time!
Let's us both pledge that this is the year of the NaNoSubmission. We write something that we fully intend to submit for publication. In December, we write synopses and query letters, and in January we start mailing submissions and the first three chapters, while we spiff up the rest of the manuscript.
You think?
Well...so long as it isn't the NaNo novel for this year that I gotta try to get done...
I dunno...the whole process just seems scary to me! But I do intend to pick up a used copy of Writer's Market one of these days to do some reading up on possible publishers and stuff. Might also help me decide what I want to attempt if I do anything "real".
I wanted to try last year, and then I got... distracted. This year might be similarly bad timing. You ought to go for it!
Anyway if I wait at least a little longer I can have a more interesting name to publish under.
Rabbits ate my marigolds.
But on the bright side, my coffee beans didn't float. :)
OTT, good morning!
Having coffee, breakfast, and watching Steamboat Bill Jr.
Heh....the old shopping-for-hats gag.
Mornin' folks.
Stayed out way too late last night. I went with my sister to a friend's house and played Texas Hold 'Em until midnight.
I didn't win a single hand, but since we were just playing with chips it didn't matter. :-)
Now I'm trying to get motivated to tackle the girls' room. Let the final Great Toy Purge begin!
Morning OT, All: back from the dogpark; several doxies, one longhair; beautiful young german shepherd, couple of not sure.
Gypsygirl made it through the pipe several times (we used the old toss treat into tunnel trick) so she might make a connection with that one.
OT, we found one of your littlebittybunnies at our place, do you want to come over and get it? Or should we keep it for awhile?
