A slippery spiral

Jun 04, 2009 23:38


Actually, all spirals are slippery, aren't they?

I know I need to update this blog more frequently.  I don't because:

* I still sort of post on my private blog on blogger and know I'll have to give it up because the domain name has nothing to do with me or my book.  And I think the blog needs to be all about the book

* Sorry, LiveJournal, but I don't like you.  You take too long to load, you're look baroque compared to blogger, and I can't figure out how to do anything fun on you

* I'm BUSY.

As in, trying to get lots and lots done on The New Manuscript, aka, The Book of the Dead, so my dear darling beloved advisor at Vermont College can see as much as possible before I (sob! sob! drowning myself in sobs!) graduate in July.

In the middle of that, I start directing a play with kids. Yay!  Actual kids!  Can't wait.

But in the middle of that, I have to finish up the second round of revisions on NICE AND MEAN.

As you can see, this leaves not much time to acquaint myself with a baroque system when I can't even change the font and help you not squint.  So I'm reduced to whinging about how much I have to do, which is pretty lame, because I don't have kids, and I don't have a whole bunch of other responsibilities.  I'm pretty lucky, really, and now I'm thinking, Yeeps, I hope no one reads this post, because I sound a bit jerkish.  But I just wanted to write something to explain why I'm not writing.

When I have my real blog, though, then you will see a lot of writing.  And really, you should visit me on Twitter (@jessicaleader.)  I have time for that.
