Superman, Bengay, Fly Boy's background, maybe one more training scene, is it supersoldier spy or super soldier spy or super soldierspy, she changed a lot of my Hells to Helens, Chapter One is too incredibly long the way she moved my breaks, mindspeak, in italics AND quotation marks???, mindspeak versus personal thought--how confusing, AND I AM ONLY ON CHAPTER FOUR!
Help. I need a break. I have two days left to get this all done, write a one page bio of Gennita Low, AND send out Chapter One and Two of Virtually Hers for MIRA to decide on excerpt. Help!!!
Ahhhh.
Can't someone tell Blogger we are afraid to switch? Please? So they'd stop putting that SWITCH button in front of my face? It makes me even more paranoid. And stubborn. There, I admit it. You have to drag me screaming and kicking to change my pattern. And I don't have the time!!!
Beiron's face looks terrible in this pic, IMO, but the body is nummy. The sarong's got to go, though. It gets in the way of the scenery.
Beiron was one of the first few male models whose names I knew. I met him once in the 90s, in New York, very briefly. ;-)
Lovely...accent. LOL. He's around my age and he's still modeling, from what I hear. Wish I can meet him again. I'll definitely do more than shake his hand this time!
Why the heck am I bringing up Beiron, you ask? I was trying to figure out my naked kata scene for Shahrukh and where to put it--Book One or Book Two (or abandon for later)--and saw a favorite Beiron pic:
Well, that stopped all thought about kata and writing. I knew you'd understand. I was thinking, wow, I remember him! He must be, like, 40 now. I wonder whether he's unmarried? ;-)
Okay, 'nuff of dat. I have to read faster, edit faster, write faster.

A Bit of Edits Hysteria

Dear Jenn:
Lousy of your editor to get the manuscript to you late, then expect you to finish all that in such a short time. It's your baby! Maybe they don't know you have a "day job". . . One idea: send it to a few select readers (I volunteer!) to read overnight and give you feedback. And/or, tell RB he's on his own, and ditch the roofing for the duration.
We're rooting for you (and Hell).
Good luck,
Cecily
Cecily,
It isn't my editor's fault. ;-) The package was lost in the mail, so we'll blame it on the post office. Grrr. And yes, I have been getting many volunteers to help read the edits lately. Hmmm.
SQ,
Heh. Actually, the copy editor for VHIS is pretty good. I think the name changing to Hell was because the PTB wanted it, LOL. Ah well. You got to compromise somewhere.
You REALLY want the first two chapters of the book? OVER A NAVY SEAL? Wow.
I'm honored!
