No new word count today. I was bad. I haven't written anything since the last post.

Well, I'm feeling very ashamed of how long it has been since I posted something here. Let just say that I am going to try and do weekly updates once again.

First off, I want to let everyone know that I decided to go back to school. I am now in my second year of the Hospitality Management for Hotels and Restaurants at St. Clair College in Windsor, Ontario. This is my last year and I am hoping to get a job in a hotel when I am done. So, my writing has been limited due to homework and my new lack of free time.

I am still writing. I am going to attempt to post word counts of my current projects on Sundays. I know that today is not Sunday, but I am going to post them today just because I haven't been posting for so long.

For those of you that have been asking about Keith, I do have something planned for him, but have yet to start it. When it does get started, it will be posted here.

Thanks for putting up with me.

OMG!! I hate computers!!!

No, that's not the news. I just needed to say that. *takes deep breath* Okay, all better now.

The news is that Broken Wings, the fourth book in the Lost Boys and Love Letters series came out on Monday! Isn't that exciting? I think it is.

I've also decided that I'm going to try and be more active on this livejournal. I know that I've said it before, but this time I'm really going to try.

I have decided that Sunday is going to be word count day. On Sunday I'm going to post the current word count for whatever WIPs that I'm working on. This I hope will be a fun way to get you all excited about upcoming novels. I also hope that it will shame me into writing more. You know, kind of a "What do you mean I only wrote three words this week! I can't post that!" deal.

If anyone read the last post, I just want to say that I am not avoiding posting about my attempted weight loss because it is not working. The reason I have yet to post anything is because I still haven't received the damn supplements yet. It's really hard to start a new weight loss plan when part of that plan is missing. I have both called and emailed in an attempt to get this cleared up and that have assured me that they are shipping them right away. My question is why didn't they ship them before? Sigh. Sometimes I just have this urge to throttle people.

Anyway, that 's all for now.

Okay, so I have decided that I am going to try the Acai supplement thing. It's supposed to help you lose weight. There was this thing on facebook where a newswoman had done it and mixed it with something that helps your colon work better and she got results. So I figured, what the hell. My lazy ass is having trouble getting the weight off on my own. And there was a free trial offer that was only good until tomorrow.

Now, I'm going to update this journal with my results once I start taking the stuff. What has me really wanting to try is the fact that some of the shirts that I bought last summer don't look as nice on me as they did then. Plus, I don't want to buy new jeans. I would really like to fit in the ones in my closet that I have never worn because they didn't fit. I would like to make it down to a size 8. I don't think that I'll ever make it back to a 6, which is what I was in high school. And according to the info I was reading these supplements also boost your metabolism and give you more energy. I could use more energy.

So, here's hoping that it works and that there is a thinner, more energetic me at Media West at the end of May.

So, I suddenly realized that I haven't updated this in quite a while, so I figured I'd just toss some basics out there.

Book 4 is done. It's just in some final edits before I send it in for submission. Ashlyn and I have to work the kinks out. Well, not all of them. :P

I've found that I have too much stuff on my laptop that distracts me when I try to write, so I'm going back to writing by hand on paper. Yes, I did just say paper. Plus, that gets rid of the annoying cursor that mocks you when you're stuck.

I got a job at Best Buy for Christmas, so I may actually be busy for a while. That will be a change.

Um, I think that's about it.
