Stick a fork in me!

In spite of the lovely food poisoning that swept over our household, I did manage to finish the new Irish proposal. Woo hoo! :crazyjumping:

Now all I have to do is figure out the synopsis and I’ll be ready to go if an editor asks me for the book. :cheer:

Tonight I was listening to an old conference CD, and I listened to Chat with Nora Roberts again. It really struck me how disciplined she is. She has earned every penny of her bestseller $$ because of how hard she works. 6-8 hours of writing a day? :confused: I would love to have that kind of time to write. Maybe someday I will. :banana:

    Is that from last year? I’ll have to listen to it. I haven’t listened to many yet, but I pulled out one Kacey recommended and got a lot out of it. Nora’s next on my list. :hello2:

    Hurrah!!

    I can’t imagine writing 6-8 hours a day. AGH!

    Hooray on getting it ready.

    Sara Craven works from 9-5 Monday thru Friday. Other people work differently — it denends on the muse…

    Yay for getting your proposal done! :hello2:

    I don’t know if I could write 6-8 hours a day. Well, maybe I could – if I just forgot about housework and kids and the dayjob…

    Food poisoning sucks (among other things). Good job getting the proposal done.

    If I didn’t have kids, I could easily spend 6-8 hours writing. When I had my dayjob, I did it quite often :twisted:

    {{{Hugs}}} on the food poisoning – hope you’re all feeling better soon!

    But yay on finishing your proposal!:wave:

    Gah – I’d love to be able to write that much every day. No wonder she gets so much accomplished.


  13. Tori Says:

    WTG, Michelle!!! You rock!!! :rocker:

    So sorry about the food poisoning! As for writing, I can’t even find five minutes lately, much less 6-8 hours a day!
