Day 94

Its been a while since I've updated, mostly because I've been going through more wacky adventures with ADHD. I love to sleep, add working full time and being easily distracted by pretty colors and whatever is on [adult swim], and you have a Bekah who is like a 3 year old on speed when it comes to focusing. It also didn't help that there was a South Park marathon on the other day completely dedicated to Butters. I love Butters.

After WEEKS I've finally, seem to have "gotten my groove" with my second book. My main character is essentially my complete opposite in terms of her natural reactions to the world around her, so it's been a challenge working through her emotions. A challenge and a learning experience. And thank god, because her mental torture is keeping my mind off the replies I'm still waiting for.

I'm all for some good old fashioned patience, but some days I just want to throw myself on the floor and roll around whining. I've done the rolling and the whining, just on the couch. Not the floor. I've "met" more helpful writers and agent types through twitter and engaged in some very informational/encourage twitchats. They've helped ease some of the query process pain. It really is like applying to college, but this time I actually care if I get in. That sounds awful, doesn't it?

I will continue to write, network, read, stalk my favorite authors... watch cartoons and fight this sudden urge to pack on winter pounds since the temperature in LA has suddenly dropped. Cookies are good.
