Sticky Post for nano at the top of my LJ, that is.  However, I don't know which graphic I prefer.  Calendar or logo... hmmm.  well, tomorrow I'll change it, but at the moment I just can't decide.

Oh, and yes, my story is going, but so slooowly.  Maybe it won't read that way, but it sure seems to drag on and on!  Plus, an entirely new character just thrust his way into my MC's life, which I totally wasn't expecting.  My MC needed to fill a few minutes (or words) before the love interest showed up and instead of just having a nice cup of coffee and pondering life as people walked by, a brand new character just appears and sits down with her!  gah.

So now my MC is upset, her love interest is pissed off and the minor character?  He's wondering why the hell everything suddenly went to shit, it's not like he was doing anything!  Grrrr.

It may not make you happy right now, but I bet it does wonders for the book in the long run.

The ratio of pissed-off author to goodness in the story is usually about 1:1.

well, I certainly hope it helps! This novel seems to be more of a romance than a fantasy at this point. Thankfully, editing comes later.
