Pages are Passing Through
One hundred twenty pages edited, rewritten, or kissed goodbye in the past two days. Rocky the heroine is Rocking On, and I think I will have the rewrite and edit done by Monday. Writing partner Brian and I worked for a short time last night on Hit and Miss the spy adventure story that has just been sitting on the top of the mountains between Las Vegas and somewhere for about a year, sitting in a bookish way on the computer. We are determined to get this book back on track. Brian wants to write and he can write, but the kind of 60 hour a week outside job he has wears him out and he has no energy to sit at the computer after work. We now have a deal he tells the story, I type the story. I get to jump in with ideas if I want but my function is my ability to take diction on the fly. We did two pages last night, doesn't seem like a lot, but two pages is better than no pages. I'm glad to be doing some new writing. My cyclopian eye was crossing yesterday from all the editing. Back to it, just do it.

Least you're writing! That's a good thing. I've been struggling to write for weeks. I got only about 500 words done in that time I think.
Billy and I have done many homework assingements, reports and term papers like that...he talks/reads and I type. He can text much quicker than me...but I can still out type the boy! ;) Glad you are writing...although I'm quite envious of your weather...I can only hope to see 78*...maybe my July or so!
