Haha, I'm baaack: Determined to write one book in a month

So after a nasty flu and many, many computer bugs...my laptop of less than a year old is effed up big time. Freezes every few minutes, so I spent yesterday with Dell peope and it is still not fixed. Grrr! The muses don't want me to finish this book!!!


Then my older laptop just upped and quit on me. Seriously? I was like, WTF? Turns out the mother board short-circuited. The stupid machine won't even turn on. Luckily I bought a hardware warranty for it and have 4 months before it expires, so a Dell rep will be here next week to replace it...YES!!!

So today, I decided to us my old...old...desk top. Have you any idea how weird a desk top keyboard feels after you've been using a lap top the last 2 years? Very weird.

I managed to scrape a little over 3000 words. Not bad, huh?

NOW I'm off to Girls Night Out. Woohoo!

Till Tomorrow.

Keep Writing.

    Glad you're feeling better. I can't imagine using a desk top now. That's got to feel weird. Kudos to you for finding a way around your computer issues, Ednah.

    Nice to know I'm not the only one hating desk tops.

      I go crazy when my computer crashes. Mind you we are a house of 7, so I can always borrow someone else's, but still, your computer is like your baby. Thank goodness I always back up my stuff.

      It's only an experiment, Eliza. If I make it, I'm taking a week off, a break from it, then start revisions before I hop on another project.

    Sounds like you seriously need a girl's night out after the aggravation you went through. Enjoy!

    That's an awesome word count! I've been doing just the opposite - switching from the desktop to my new laptop. Keyboard feels so strange. Lots of typos, but the music sounds great through my earbuds while I work. :)
