So yesterday I said my goal was to focus. Never happened. What with all of the issues and waiting yesterday, my focus was shot to you know where. But that’s ok. I worked on the outline last night for my work in progress (wip) and went to bed early. Good thing too cos daughter decided to wake me up at 5:30. 5:30??? What in the world is wrong with this child? She’s been getting up at the crack of dawn ever since her father went out of town. It’s awful. At least little brother sleeps in til about 7. He hasn’t been thrown off like she has.
I got an email from my critique partner that threw me for a loop - a good loop. Gave me some ideas for my wip in directions I never planned. I’m going to have to make some changes on some of the work I’ve already done, but that’s ok cos I really liked some of her ideas. That’s the great thing about a CP - different eyes and different minds give you new ideas. Some of them you pass on, some of them you use. I did the same for her on her current wip. Gosh, the give and take of this process is great, huh?
Ok, I’m gonna go clean house for a little while and then hopefully get some writing done today!

Thought I would drop in from the ModX thread and say hi!
Congrats on becoming and aunt!
I have twin girls, 4 years old, and work full-time, so I understand the lack of writing time!
Best of luck on your ModX!
