"Who are you?"

[kittydesade]

You are Mammy. You are one tough cookie. You are
strong, loyal and can see right through any
bull. You take great care in watching out for
your loved ones and will do anything in your
power to make them happy without compromising
your position.


Which Character from 'Gone With The Wind' are you?

Uh-huh. Well, I guess it would help if I'd actually read the book or seen the movie. It's still not something that interests me, but the quiz graphics are pretty.

Anyway.

Packaged up four short story manuscripts for sending tomorrow. The bf suggested I wait until after the writing workshop this evening, and it's a good idea. They might want some other piece, or have someone who can take a look at query letters, that sort of thing. And a couple of the pieces I'm sending out are my favorite/best ones, or at least I think so. So I want to make sure I'm sending them to good places.

I steal Sebastian icon *glomp* Mmmm. Sebastian.

I feel really accomplished just getting together the damn query packages. I've been talking about it for months now, ever since I got back from Christmas break, but this is the first time I actually managed to get up the courage to do it. I feel like a writer again, as opposed to someone who spews stories onto paper. I hope this high lasts until I get my first rejection slips, at least. Or at least long enough to edit the two novels I need to get done this month. Bleh. Especially with this headache that's starting right between my eyes.

Oh well. Maybe I'll go have a lie down. Not that long till writer's workshop anyway.

But still, life is good. I got the submission packets together, I'm making progress on most of my stories (except the Griffinfic! Gyah! I feel like I've so royally fucked that one over) and writing a decent number of short stories. I'm still exercising, still walking every day, and things are progressing. Maybe not as fast as I'd like, but definitely progressing. Forward motion, baby, forward motion. Nowhere to go but up. I have hope.
