Waving Wildly—HI EVERYONE!!!!!!

Yes, I’m drinking my second cup of coffee so I’m all jacked up! And we don’t make just regular old coffee at the Kelley house. Nope, we bought a latte maker at Wally World so we get a pot of coffee in every cup. YE-HAW!!!!! Did I mention I’m on deadline, too, and it’s getting closer and closer and closer???? Ohhhhhh, try writing a love scene when you’ve had two lattes! My heroes can make a jackrabbit sit back and say—Whoa! Cool, Dude!

Okay, I do admit that I go back and flesh out a lot of scenes–no pun intended (yeah, right!). I make sure I’ve had no coffee when I’m at the polish stage.

I have three stages of writing.

1st stage: This book is going to be my best one yet. Where do I come up with these fantastic ideas! Man, I am so damned good at this!
2nd Stage: What the hell was I thinking??? This book is crap! It will always be crap and no one will want to buy it—ever!
3rd Stage: Hey, it isn’t that bad. If fact, it’s pretty good. Wow, I might even get another contract.

I’m kind of between the second and third stage right now.

Okay, I’m going to make this a shortie so I might *might* make my deadline. Y’all be good! Okay, you don’t really have to be good.

Hugs,
Karen Kelley
