Holding Out for a Hero

I love that song “Holding Out for a Hero.” Even if Shrek 2 did steal it. It’s such a feel-good song and it fits my current mood as I’m trying to make my current hero even more manly.

Notre Dame managed to squeak out a victory over Michigan, though it wasn’t pretty. :boxing: Both teams made a lot of mistakes and it was painful to watch. Yikes. Hope they improve their offense for next week.

I printed out through page 200 of my book and marked up all the places that needed fixing. For my hero, I used a pink highlighter pen to denote where he was being too sensitive. :whip: My mantra is–must make him the ultra alpha sexy man. I tend to doodle on the margins of my pages and write–Add more sexy man here. Or, “Cry me a river, wussy boy.” The editor asked me to add more tension to chapters eight through twelve. Um…okay. So I went through and wrote the words tension and conflict! on the margins where I thought it should be added.

Mind you, I have no CLUE what will actually be added to these places. I write by the seat of my pants and I’m hoping that I can find the right words when I get there. Or I’ll do what I usually do and write it twelve wrong ways before I find the correct method. :typing:

In any case, I apologize in advance that I’m going to be entering the (echoing voice) Cave of Revisions now. If I’m a little scarce, I’ll be back as soon as I figure out what “Tension!” means. :beer:
