Yes, I got back to working on my novel. I worked on it over the weekend, up to chapter 7. I have registered for my first writers' conference in October so I have a deadline to get it done. I'm rejuvenated and ready to finish this product that has taken me forever. So that explains my silence on here. I have to focus. I have focused. We're redecorating the family room this week... my husband is. So I will be able to move all my computer stuff into another room and hopefully focus some more. I want it done by the end of August at the latest because I want to pay an editor to look at it before the conference. I'm also reading a good book, which I will review here as soon as I'm finished it. Finally getting some priorities in order.

I haven't been as dedicated as I should be. And to be honest, I haven't gotten back to it since the weekend but our house is a little messed up right now. I haven't even read or gotten on the treadmill.

Yes, I must get back at it. I've had a busy week. I considered editing tonight but opted to finish the book I am reading and hope I will edit tomorrow.
