Saturday is going to be MY time. If someone wants me to do something, this time I’m just going to say no. I’ve had various things I’ve had to do on Saturdays, and I promise, I really didn’t mind. Most of them were fun things, things I could do to help someone else. But this Saturday is mine. I have to:
1. Write a decent amount for my NaNo novel so I won’t get any farther behind. In fact, I hope I’ll catch up by Saturday.
2. Finish Guardian Vampire, a novella that only lacked a chapter or two being finished before NaNo started.
3. Do a lot of editing on Jonathan Eli’s novel since he wants to get it out by Christmas.
4. Then maybe do some editing on Guardian Vampire, which also needs to be done by Christmas.
If I get those four things done, I’ll feel like I’ve accomplished a lot. And maybe I’ll reward myself by playing a computer game or watching Buffy. Or maybe taking a nap if I’ve gotten up early that morning. Saturday is mine!

AND WELL IT SHOULD BE
Exactly.
Way to take control! We all need to do that once in awhile.
We sure do, LJ. And it’s really hard for me to say no.
Good for you!
It’s so liberating. LOL
Wow, thank you for including me. I look forward to seeing what you’ve done with the book and I am wrapping up Kat soon (I’m in no hurry; you have plenty on your plate right now) Then I get to start the re-write on the first Jim Benjamin book. I think you’ll like the changes I am going to make (Sorry, it’s still going to have a lot of drag racing in it. But that is a big part of the theme of the book) I am glad the NaNo work is going well. I hope you make the 50K word goal, good luck.
Yeah, Jonathan, I have to work on your book. We have to get it out by Christmas. And I have to get Guardian Vampire out by Christmas. I don’t know if Haunted Lake will be ready by then or not. Like I said in an earlier post, things are happening a little too fast. I might need to add some back story on another one of the characters that we don’t know much about.
