Coherent post? You’re going to have to wait for the weekend

I have a lot of random thoughts to share today, but nothing really firm, so here it is, my mental stir-fry:

1. Finished Bad Boys Ahoy! last night. Quite good. I think the second story is the best. It has my favorite characters of the lot, and a very gripping romance. Lucien is very shades of Derek Craven, for those of you who swoon over him. Also, this is a very good example of what erotic romance should be. The sex scenes are completely unskippable, because they are where all of the emotional gauntlets get thrown down, where all the big turning points take place. Anyway, give it a whirl. I predict great things for Ms. Sylvia Day.

2. Busy weekend ahead of me. I thought I had my WRW meeting, but no, that’s next week. THANK GOODNESS! This weekend I must: finish my GH judging, ready my outline for delivery to my editor, do my Marlene judging, finish chapter one of SSG2, crit my CP’s new proposal (which she will be finished with any moment, right?), clean my apartment, do laundry, and read a book.

3. Joe from the “Book Covers from the NYT book review” blog posted on my blog, and what’s more, he said he liked the cover of my book, symmetry and all. (By the way, Joe, I love the lobster DFW.) Really, guys, check out this blog. It’s SUCH an education.

4. Last night I had a phone conference with my editor about 2nd PP. I just lub her. I also lub my book. Last night, she made the dangerous mistake of asking me (last chance now!) if there were any passages that I thought should be added, etc. I said no, then promptly spent he rest of the night poring over the book, wondering if there were. And, for the most part, no. Also, my book? Really funny stuff. Naturally, I have a warm place in my heart for the characters, but I think it’s funny anyway. I can’t wait for y’all to meet these folks and share in their adventures!

Anyway, off to send my understanding, patient, long-suffering editor an email about the tiny little things I think I might change, after all… (I think I owe Kerri like a dozen drinks by now!)
