I have realized, and made peace with, the fact that for me writing is 80% thinking and 20% writelikecrazyandracethedeadline. Seriously. Until I have a real understanding of my characters, and they start to click for me, all I do is struggle in the writing. And once things “click,” then the story flows so much better. I do wish, though, that the click thing would happen a lot sooner than two months before my deadline. Hard on the nerves, that.
Michele and I are apparently living parallel lives except I’ve not made peace with this.
I tend not to make peace until I’m supposed to turn it in. Then suddenly there’s peace every damn place and I can’t keep up. :)
I’m looking forward to seeing your hair! LOL!

Dee, my dh rants with every book that he doesn’t know why I’ve gotten so behind. :[
The hair, most particularly the eyebrows, are much improved. I like it.
