Revisions, Revisions

Well, my husband read over the last section of the book and found a few things. Nothing major like scrap the whole thing (thank God!), but just questions concerning charcter actions and, since he's a science buff, a few suggestions about how to deal with the more ... well ... scientific aspects of the story. Overall he really loved it. And it was a compliment to me that he read half the story in just two days, since he doesn't read fiction stories and is a slow reader. I tried to make the story fast paced and I suceeded in that regard. I'll take this next week to make his corrections then it's off to make the rounds to my other readers. I've learned a lot with writing this story and I'm certain my next one will be even better for it.

Also, I need to stop watching so much damn TV. Especially that reality crap! When I was PMS-ing this week and knocked down with cramps, I watched a show call High Maintenance 90210. If I ever have my portrait painted on the bottom of my pool (when I get a pool), my friends have permission to thoroughly slap me. Favorite reality clip quote:

"Don't you interrupt my prayers or else God may direct me to whoop your ass."

Ah, why am I writing fiction?

I think you should ban TV in general for the year ;)

HEeh. Hell, I don't even know what's ON TV...I'm sure it's more than Dora, Diego and Thomas the Train.

All except the important shows: Lost, Battlestar, Smallville, and Heroes. And maybe Family Guy and American Dad. How else am I to bond with my husband? :p
