Celebrate the Small Things: 8/16

Things I'm celebrating this week:

1)  The scary picture of the demon cat on my post last week did the trick -- I'm writing so he doesn't come get me!
2)  I've finished Chapter 4 in my WIP; that's about 10k words so far, and I'll be starting Chapter 5 tomorrow.
3)  My CPs are so encouraging.  They ROCK!
4)  Thanks to all my Facebook buddies for keeping me entertained during writing breaks ... sometimes so entertained that I don't go back to writing for quite a while.  Heh, heh, heh.

Wishing you all a happy, healthy week and much progress on your writing or whatever you're working on. :-)

Synopsis:
          As a moonwulf, Daciana never expected to fall in love with a human.  Hell, she never imagined that she’d abandon her pack, endanger everyone around her, and break the worst rule possible.  But she did.
          A rogue werewolf is killing Daciana’s friends, and she sets on capturing the creature.  She’ll do whatever it takes to stop the beast.  The police and her boyfriend, Inspector Connell Lonescu, are starting to question her involvement in the murders, which is endangering the pack’s secret existence.  But when the pack alpha kidnaps Connell, revealing the awful truth about the creature and its connection to the pack, Daciana must choose between saving the man she loves and saving her pack family from certain death.

Tania is one of my brilliant CPs.  I read Cloaked in Fur several times as she worked to make it the best book possible -- and it is!  With a tough, impetuous heroine, exciting action, and a very romantic leading man, this book will delight anyone who loves Paranormal Suspense, Dark Fantasy, or Action/Adventure.  Buy it and see for yourself! ~ Lexa Cain

Excuses why I'm not writing and my (better) self arguing!

Me:  It's too hot out.  I hate summer.
Myself:  That's why you have the air conditioner, dummy.
Me:  I have too many other responsibilities and not enough time.
Myself:  Waaa-waaa-waaa. Plenty of writers are busier than you and they're getting books written.
Me:  I'm not sure it's good enough.
Myself:  What? The empty screen isn't good enough?
Me:  No, I mean my WIP, my idea, my writing...
Myself:  If you don't keep going, you'll ever know.
Me:  But I've been writing a bit during the past month, and I didn't come close to my goal!
Myself:  Don't focus on what you didn't accomplish; focus on what you did.
Me:  But ... but ... but ...
Myself:  In the time you've wasted coming up with excuses, you could've written a page or two.  JUST DO IT!!

Celebrate the Small Things: 8/2

No, that's not what I meant at all.

Delete, delete, delete...edit, edit, edit.

That's better, but still not quite right.

Delete, delete, delete...edit, edit, edit.

OK! 

Oops, a typo.

Delete...edit.

Done! 

Now, on to my next Facebook comment.

And I wonder why my WIP isn't getting done faster...

This week I'm celebrating:

1)  My content editor approved the changes and my novel, Soul Cutter, is off to the line-editor.
2) Despite being distracted by FB, I managed to finish the first chapter in my WIP.
3) I finally got over an awful cold, but that takes away my last excuse for not working harder ... darn it ...


Do you spend too much time on social media and wonder why your WIP isn't done yet -- or is it just me?
