In the Form of an Update…

I’ve been sitting here for a while, staring at the computer screen, trying to think of a Monday song that’s speaking to me this week.  Problem is…  there’s only silence.  Since it’s been a while since I updated anyone, let’s do that now, shall we?

On the writing front, there’s been no motion with Going in Circles, which is fine.  I firmly believe it will go when God is ready.  I’m good with that.  I have the second book of that series, Rearview Mirror completely revised but in need of a final two chapters.  I changed something and can’t quite decide how I want to handle the end with the change.  Sacred Surrender is in an editor’s hands!  She wrote back, asked for a few changes, and is now considering the book with those revisions.  Looking forward to hearing how that goes!  The Book That Has Yet to Be Named is finished, 75% revised, and waiting for me to wrap it up.  It’ll take a week or so if I can ever get this move to end. And it really needs a name so I can put it up on the website.  Help?

On the personal front, we’re settled in our new digs.  Finally.  After the movers decided to turn our door-to-door move into a three-weeks-in-storage move.  That was fun.  It was also a big lesson from God.  I chose to laugh instead of cry.  Hey, you can get mad or you can laugh at conversations like this:

Moving Rep: I’ve got a driver in Rhode Island.

Me: I’m not in Rhode Island.  My stuff is not in Rhode Island.  We are nowhere near Rhode Island. Is he going to head your way and load up our stuff?

MR:  I don’t know.

Me:  So what you’re saying is, you don’t know when our stuff is going to get here?

MR:  I didn’t say that.

Me:  So when is it going to get here?

MR:  I dunno.

TA-DA!  Best conversation I ever had.  I’m a fiction writer and I couldn’t make stuff that good up.   🙂  My daily call to our moving company was great fun.  I almost sort of miss it.  Almost, but not quite.

So, what’s going on in your life?  Hope your summer is fabulous!
