Good News, and Not So Good News

Well, the good news is that I now know how the Horseman Trilogy will end. Yay!

The not so good news? Well, the first draft of Seasons doesn't QUITE work now. Back to the drawing board with about 50% of it.

The other good news is that I seem to be rewriting less with each novel. This is a good thing, yes?

The notecards come out tomorrow.

Bed now.

Yet one more reason I really think I'm going to home school when I have kids...

Courtesy of blue_vervain - this makes me FURIOUS. Absolutely furious. And happier than I have ever been that:

a. I graduated long before this ridiculous NCLB crap started and
b. I went to a semi-private high school, so my teachers actually cared about teaching AND got the support of the administration that they needed.

Steaming here, just steaming.

Yet another loss in the literary world

Lloyd Alexander passes away

Thanks to blue_vervain again for the head's up.

I will not gloat...much.

But the Yankees lost, AGAIN, to the White Sox, and my Red Sox swept BOTH games of the doubleheader today. Current standings: Yankees, 9.5 games back; Toronto, 10 games back; Baltimore and Tampa Bay, tied at 10.5 games back. Not only that, but we're leading the AL with a 28-12 record.

Not only that, but I'm finally figuring out the complete story arc for Seasons and Rites.

I have very yummy white vanilla grapefruit tea.

AND, most importantly, I am having the BEST hair week I have had in a long time.

WEEK.

Life is good.
