I totally have to fire my whole f-list now.

1) How come I've been on LJ since 2001 and nobody told me about the friendsfriends feature? How the heck did I miss that?

2) How come my f-list never told me they know such extremely cool and interesting people? Seriously. Browsing through the friendsfriends posts, I realize that I have been missing out. Way to hoard the wealth, guys.

3) I'm on the final slope of the Tower!Guy novel and hoping I can keep my wordcount down to a reasonable level. Seriously. Dear Monkey!god, grant that I might keep this mess under 110k of words, so that I mayest revise and submit without having to strip out ENTIRE CHARACTERS like I did last time. Oh, and much bananas to you if it comes in at 100k or less.

4) Where in the great flaming tartarus was Holly Lisle's One Pass Manuscript Revision last time I needed to revise a manuscript? This woman is made of awesome, and yet, nobody clues me in. YOU ARE ALL THE WEAKEST LINK FIRED. GOODBYE.

5) One of the most helpful tools for writing I've had during the writing of this novel has been a kitchen timer. I'll explain why later.

Actually I think it's just Holly Lisle. Holly Black is a whole 'nother author. :)

THE TYPO MONSTER ATE ME.

That actually wasn't intended to be anywhere near that paragraph. It's what I get for multitasking, huh?

Thanks for letting me know.

LOL, too funny! I love the One Pass Manuscript Revision, and made a print out of it. It's super!

I've never heard of the friendsfriends feature. I guess you just don't have the good quality of friends these days, ack! I'm a thrift-store friend!

Anyway, keep going with your work, it sounds like you're doing great!
