Round Things
In honor of the new episode of Doctor Who I am dedicating this post to "the round things". Don't know Doctor Who? That's okay. That may be the only Who reference in this post.
Life is full, I mean CHOCK FULL of round things. Hamburgers, chocolates, steering wheels, cups, you just can't escape the round things. They are everywhere!
Writing a book is full of round things too. A writer starts at the beginning of the story and rounds it all out at the end. (Or we hope so, right?)
Why am I telling you this? Because today I hope to finish my submission for Felicia Starr's Rock anthology. Another 5,000 words and that baby is finished. After some polishing, it's going to my betas for some last minute clean up and then BAM! I am done with it!
Sitting beside me are more round things. A decadent bag of Dove Milk Chocolate Silky Smooth Promises is beckoning me to open it. BUT I have promised, see what I did there, myself NOT to OPEN the bag until the story is sent to Felicia.
Today's the day people. Carpe diem! (Seize the fish!) I know that's not really what it means.

5 Interesting Things About Me
Several GOOD things happened today. Here they are:
NUMBER ONE: Jamie Rushly named the rock band for my anthology piece. That was AWESOME because I stressed over the name for a WEEK! Thanks, Jamie!
NUMBER TWO: This is kind of funny! Don't fall asleep reading this!! Twice today I was tagged in the "Name 5 Interesting Things about Me" post. My first thought and still is: I am NOT THAT INTERESTING! I'm weird and the things I do have been labeled 'unconventional'. Unconventional does not fit in to the status quo. Curious as to what I put in the statuses? Here they are:

1. I am not a morning person! I hate going to bed & hate getting out of it.
2. I've never been out of the USA. I would like to preferably in a TARDIS!
3. I am an obsessive writer! I can knock out a 75,000 word manuscript in less than a month!
4. I never have a lot of time to read. When I do, I binge!
5. I always crave chocolate (or bananas). There are certain times when I go to the store I buy a bunch of bananas & eat them all before I get home.

1. I am OBSESSED with David Tennant. SUPRISED, RIGHT?
2. I am a newbie Author.
3. I have written over 12 stories, 13 counting the one I just wrote in the last year and a half. Each different genres.
4. I LOVE to sing & listen to all types of music!
5. My family are my world! They mean so much to me & I them!
SEE! Weird! Unconventional. But, hey, I am me and I am okay with it! I like me!
