In Pursuit of an Untamed Water Fowl

Isn't that nicer than saying "a wild goose chase?" The book led me down the garden path for a bit. I was trying to make things more complicated than they needed to be. Sometimes you have to prune back some of the subplots or they overwhelm the book. It is something I may have failed to do with Cat, which is why I'm so worried waiting for the editor to write back. (Actually, one of MANY reasons, another of which is rampant paranoia!)

HI JIM!!!!! HI YO!!!!! HI A.J.!!!!!!

Guys, I appreciate your stopping by. Jim, I'll be sending you a personal response as soon as I can. I was going to write an e-mail last night, but wound up staying late at the day job. Maybe at lunch or tonight! ANYWAY, thanks for writing!

I'm getting happier again. Still having some physical trouble, and work at the day job sucketh a bit, but I'm getting happier... I guess just cause. Anyway, I'm not going to question it!

Gotta run. Life waits for no one.

HEY Cie!

:)

It's Australia Day here, so it's a public holiday -- got the hubby home so we can hang out. Cool.

Oh, and subplots, I LOVE 'em! So I know what you mean. :)

Have a GREAT day.

Hi, Cie!!

I know what you mean about subplots! I've got so many stories in my mind that they are all swirling subplots right now, subjugated beneath the paw of my new WIP. Which is driving me crazy, clawing it's way out of mind with a physical force.

Best of luck with the WIP!

Happy to stop by! You're one of my few autoreads.
