What I'm Listening To Right Now: How To Save A Life by The Fray

Operation Taking My Plot Back From My Characters has commenced. I sat down today and roughly plotted out what needs to happen in the rest of the book, and also more tightly plotted out what will happen in the next few chapters. Surprisingly enough, there's not much left. It's jarring to look at it and think, "Oh, so now I need to prepare for some rejections..."

Because I'm not stupid, I know when I send my book out to agents, it will get rejected, that's what agents do. But, in my new and positive way of thinking, I'm also planning that I'll get some that think I'm brilliant. Or maybe just pretty good. I'd take that.

Anyway, enough about my book. What are you all reading? I'm on my second Jennifer Crusie book of the year, Fast Women. I read and loved her book Welcome To Temptation last year and I picked up Don't Look Down a week or so ago at the library and really enjoyed it too. I think it was the third Crusie book I've read, so I put a few more on hold at the library.

I do this type of thing a lot. I find an author that I like and read everything they write. I'm very loyal that way, especially about books. I won't even get into how, besides the library, I don't get books from anywhere but Barnes & Noble. You should see my attitude on the rare occasion that I go into Borders. :)

I'd love any suggestions of good, light-hearted books. As much as I love drama, especially writing it, I like lighter stuff when I'm just reading. It helps me relax. So let me know.

Okay, that's it for me tonight. I'm off to start Fast Women.
