Happy Monday! Monday Mishmash is a weekly meme dedicated to sharing what's on your mind. Feel free to grab the button and post your own Mishmash.
Here's what's on my mind today:
- Drafting I took a week off after drafting two books and a novella in a row. I'm ready to dive into the last book in the Lies We Tell trilogy this week.
- Field Trip I am chaperoning a field trip this Thursday to a cranberry bog. Please do an anti-rain dance for me. The weather is looking dreadful for the second half of this week. :(
- Editing I'm waiting on a client edit and taking advantage of the free time to write, write, write!
- 9 Releases!!!! Because I'm completely crazy, I agreed to be part of an anthology releasing on Thanksgiving. What am I thinking? That will make 9 releases this year. I may need to be fitted for a straitjacket by December!
- Dying Laptop I'm pretty sure my laptop is on its last leg. :( I love my MacBook Pro and am not happy about needing to buy a new one.
That's it for me. What's on your mind today?
Hi Kelly - well you sure are busy ... I hope your laptop doesn't die on - and that you can swap over easily. I'll be thinking of you re the rain later this week ... enjoy the field trip -cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteThanks, Hilary!
DeleteWow! Nine releases does sound kind of crazy, but congrats. You work so hard, it must be very fulfilling to put so much work out there. I have hardly drafted this year, but I'm itching to get back to it. I need some of your drafting mojo. ;)
ReplyDeleteSending some mojo your way!
DeleteAs field trip destinations go, a cranberry bog is unusual. There is a small town here that has a cranberry festival in the fall.
ReplyDeleteIt is! Lol
DeleteI have no idea how you write so many! Do you ever sleep?
ReplyDeleteOh, yes. I love my sleep.
DeleteI'm doing the anti-rain dance while pondering how any one person can have nine releases at once, and if they can, (as you can) surely they can command the weather, too!
ReplyDeletelol Apparently I seem more together than I actually am. ;)
DeleteIt won't be pretty but I'll do an anti-rain dance for you. You'll need a holiday after 9 books this year, but isn't it fun. Wish I could write that fast, but I'm so slooooow.
ReplyDeleteI think next year will be fun. ;) No, I'll be fine after this book is written.

ReplyDeleteI desperately need a new computer- but the funds are not here right now, so I keep hoping every day that it keeps working.
ReplyDeleteVisiting a cranberry bog sounds like fun. Fingers crossed for good weather. :)

I keep trying to make this laptop last longer. It's such a great computer.
DeleteHi Kelly! I hope you get more usage out of your MacBook. I hate dying laptops...they are so fickle! Leave us stranded!
ReplyDeleteAll the best with your writing!
Thank you!
DeleteWhen my previous computer was coming to a stuttering stop, I considered some kind of Mac. But I fully committed to the dark side, with my new PC that operates on Microsoft Windows.
ReplyDeleteI'll never go back to a PC. I use Mac only programs.
