This isn’t going to be a terribly productive week for writing, I can just tell. I spent this morning at my daughter’s school watching her sports day – two very long hours in the hot sun. Tomorrow I am hosting a brunch for the moms of grade two. I’m not crazy – it’s potluck – but I still have to organize my house and go out and get paper plates and napkins. Later in the week my son has an event at his school I have to attend.
Things have certainly changed since I was in school – I can count on one hand the number of times my mother was ever invited to anything at my school!
Before I know it, it will be the weekend again and there will be yet more running around and distractions keeping me from my writing.
Oh well. At least I’ve been very very good lately – my 500 word a day goal has kept me on track and I’ve written that and more just about every day last week. I’m probably just past the halfway point on my WIP and starting the coast home.
I even came up with a title. I frequently have trouble with titles. Either it comes first, before the story idea or I agonize over it – discarding many before I find one that I feel will work. So, here’s the blurb:
Maggie and Sam grew up in the same town, knew each other in school, admired each other from afar, but never dated. She was just a little too straight and narrow for this bad boy. Now they’re all grown up and back in their hometown – she to deal with a family crisis, he to prove that he’s changed his ways. Neither can deny their attraction but they’re still at odds. She’s down on family life – can he be the one to convince her to settle down?
The title? ALL THE WAY HOME
I’ll have to get back to you on a release date but it feels good to at least give it a name.
