Dun-dun-dun-dun!
Isn't it funny how when you write out the word-version of music, you are totally convinced that everyone will know exactly what you're talking about? Or maybe that's just me.
The particular dun-dun-dun-dun of this post's subject line isn't the wedding march, or the Storm Trooper's theme music, but it *is* that sort of dun-dun-dun-dun that comes right before something really big happens.
For me, the 'really big something' is that I've gotten my new editor's notes on the fetchingly titled Untitled NYC Mystery, my 2011 novel. I've been so anxious to hear her thoughts, so eager to get back to the characters that I feel like I'm just getting to know. She's asked some terrific questions that I'll have a heck of a time/time of my life (?) answering.
I'm hoping to get a chunk of it done before Kindling Words, so I can go with a good sense of what I want to figure out while I'm there.
I'll be squatting in coffee shops and libraries for this next revision, since I had to let my membership to the Writer's Room go. I'm sad about it, but figure being forced to find places in NYC will write will somehow make my book about NYC better. Or so I hope.
Also, I really really need some new Avatars. Anyone have favorite LJ blogs to pull from?
