so actually...

I got in more writing time yesterday than I thought I would. Once I admitted defeat, I was able to pick myself back up and get busy. I finished the first of the three chapters, then did a bunch of early chapter cleanup that had been waiting for me. I just hope I didn't veer too far off course in terms of the story, but I guess that remains to be seen. At least I felt like I put it all out there, not holding back, taking everything to the page. Yes, the experience left me feeling exposed and embarrassed afterward, way more vulnerable than I'd like, but I have a feeling that's what's been missing in my work, so hopefully this is a step the proverbial right direction.

Anyway, enough about that. My little brother had his first modeling job over the weekend! I'm anxious to call him to find out how it went. : )
