Right, I gotta go to bed, work tomorrow. ;o( Oh joy and I've been told that it's just me and the duty manager (who is some tall snotty nosed 19 year old guy who although I try really hard to get on with, can be the most disorganised pain in the arse possible - yeah we clash big time!) till about 11am!  whoo hoo... so between us we have papers to stuff, bake off to bake, deliveries to haul in... AND not only that, some mad fuckers are going around with hammers doing over corner shops at 6.30am (because they've failed to break in and steal stuff when there is no one in store - including our store the other week!  They set off the fog sensors - can't see a thing so are forced out) - GREAT!  I REALLY want to go into work tomorrow not.  Shit...

So if I don't post tomorrow afternoon... you know I got hit by a hammer - ouch!  - actually I shouldn't joke about it.  Not funny.

But hey, I did get chapter 9 partly written :D  Oh and I enjoyed it :D ...teeny, tiny bit of Face Whumping

OMG - you know when you've got this scene in your head and you've gotta write it down - well I've totally neglected the kids and written it down :D  It's a long way off in the A Beautiful Lie Series... but I liked it so much I just had to get it onto paper, well, pc! 

Right... back to the kids!

Thought I'd post now before I look at the clock and find it's gone 11pm!!!!

I've been bashing away at chapter 8 and I've sent that over to my Beta's - apparently we're getting paid :D  - that's a joke - my disclaimer does read:  "I don't own the A-Team and I've not made a penny from this - I just do it for the Jazz!" - and rightly so!

Chapter 4 is on ff.net and the ATSB - for my FANS - lol!  But I do have a couple of Face/Amy fans, which makes me feel quite mushy inside :D  I certainly didn't think they'd be that many out there, but there is a few :D  opps just realised gotta put it on here too!  I knew there was somewhere else!  Shit, I'll do that next.  (I'll put on my website later - I do a couple of chapters at a time at the moment) - once the story is complete then I'll send over to the Archive... to have it found on lousyfic :D

Anyway word count is (it does include some notes - if only Word would count in colour code or something ???): 12,826 words

Right, I've got about an hour left... mmmm.... actually I should do some reading!  Just realised I haven't read chapter 3 of junkfood_monkey 's AM2W part 19

now I'm thinking of bad song titles to post my exercise update - and I don't even think I've got it right! lol!

Yes I went running again tonight (well jogging)

Time: 21.49 minutes
Distance: 2.11 miles
Average pace: 10.21 mins per mile

So now what do I do? After tea that is.  I got Pride And Prejudice DVDs out of The Mail last weekend... Colin Firth I want to see Colin Firth - period dramas aren't usually my thing.  All because, Helen Fielding (on the Bridget Jones' Diary dvd) says that Mark Darcy was based on Mr Darcy in P&P played by Colin Firth... and she was so happy when Colin agreed to play Mark Darcy.  - so I kinda want to see it.

Colin Firth IS the reason I want to see Mamma Mia! :D

I'm into my writing... the dvds will always be there ;o) I should watch Range Rider too... need some stuff from that episode :D  My document word count is over 12,000 words - admittedly there is some notes in there (which I will turn into a story and not just post as per lousyfic discussion :D

Sorry I couldn't resist - I actually found this funny :D

I'm not nervous at all :D

How an earth does she manage 26 miles? 

I did a run tonight... I literally have come in plonked myself in front of my pc to log it :D or jog it :D

I wanted to do a quick run tonight... so I wasn't sure if I'd make the two mile or not, and I didn't quite.

Time: 17.48 minutes
Distance: 1.84 miles (nearly though....just couldn't be arsed to run past my house!)
Average pace - wait for it - drum roll please - 9.39 minutes per mile :D

Right, I'll have my tea then I'll get some reading, writing and editing done!  And hopefully post chapter 3

got to go to bed!  I've been a busy bee... commenting on mad stalkers, writing new chapters and editing earlier chapters of One More Lie.  Sorry - chapter 3 tomorrow - too late now.  Just noticed the time.

Didn't do much reading tonight... too busy reading comments and new lj threads.

talk more later - I need my bed :D

I managed to read another chapter of AM2W Part 19 - and looks like I've inspired junkfood_monkey with something or other but my lips are sealed :D 

And I read the short stories of ostarella's her new ones and some old ones!

Writing - yeah got some done too - lengthened out chapter 7 - it wasn't long enough but now it is.  I've added a bit that JFM said about - not so much in her words, but the joke is still there.  The bit after really needs to be a new chapter new scene that sort of thing.  Gosh - by jove, I think I'm getting it :D  Well, at least when it comes to new chapters/scenes ;o)

Need to edit chapter 3 of One More Lie though - didn't get that done - do that tomorrow!  Feeling better now I've caught up on some reading!

Right BED - far to late! 

Well I thought I was going faster tonight, but a tiny bit slower on my last run:

Time: 24.01 minutes - that's the longest run so far :D
Distance: 2.38 miles (damn not quite the 2.5 miles I was aiming for but I sort of run out of road/route - need to look at a different way to extend it)
Average pace: 10.06 mins per mile (Thursday was 9.50 mins per mile) - so a tiny bit slower, all as I said, I thought I was going faster.

I think I need to aim to be running for around 30 minutes a time.  I'm not losing any bloody weight!  Gah!

Well Chapter 2 of One More Lie is on the ATSB, ff.net and on my LJ :D

Chapter 1 made it onto my website

And I've been working on editing Chapter 6 and writing Chapter 7.  It's a bit difficult... and I don't know how far to take Face's thoughts, bearing in mind something Star raised around an earlier chapter.  Which she is totally right... but it's so hard to make Face con himself :D

Failed miserably on reading more of Part 19 of AM2W - maybe tomorrow will be a reading night.  Or read a chapter, then I'm allowed to write - how's that for a reward - because if I do it the other way around, I won't read, coz I'll get so stuck into writing.  I can't believe it's nearly (only 4 minutes to go) 11pm!

So, with this, I must go to bed :D

Here it is!  Busy writing, editing... let me know what you think, or if you spot a nit or typo, or something seems off ;o)

Well I got brave and posted chapter one of One More Lie on here and ff.net.  So if there are any typos or nits... well they can still be editted.  I'll leave it a couple of days and then if nothing get's raised... it can go on my website :D

Watched Wild Hogs today - I found this film so wonderfully funny.  I love John Travolta.  Love Tim Allen just from his Home Improvements days and that bloke from Bad Boys, Will Smith's partner - Martin I think his name is  - funny :D  And Ray Loiatta (gosh don't know how the bloody hell to spell his surname) great bad guy - although he's not a bad bad guy - this is a comedy after all :D

Right, too tired to think of anything else coherent to write.  Not really much done writing wise.  Bit of reading done.  But watched film really tonight.

nightie night

x

p.s. and I'm not sure about my foxy moods - they don't seem expressive enough to me.  I like my moods to move.. might have to find new moods!

Here we go - what the heck - I've got five minutes so I'll post chapter one!  Not sure how fast the chapters will come, as still writing the story, but I'll try to keep it flowing for you.  If you spot a typo or major nit, let me know!  I can still edit.  I won't put this over on the archive until complete.

Gah!  trying to write chapter 6 and I'm having the same problems I've had with the chapters before!  The first paragraph to get into it, set the scene is just not working!  grrrrr...

Going to go have my shower, take a break for five minutes and come back to it.  I'm feeling really tired actually (the couple of bottles of lager probably aren't helping) so maybe I shouldn't panic and work on it another day.

I'm wondering about chapter 1 on the ATSB... should I post here too for comments.  Then if I get no editing feedback - should I post on ff.net?  I've got people waiting for the next instalment :D - yes I do!  There are actually peeps out there who like Face/Amy :D

Posted my first chapter of One More Lie on the ATSB.... Thought that way it would keep me motivated.  It's not like I've got to post a chapter a night or anything.   NOW watch that site go dead again :o(   It's slash - just Amy/Face slash :D lol!

Well, I've been writing but not reading.  Not in the mood to read and I know I must do some.  Otherwise I'll never catch up on junkfood_monkey 's AM2W ;o)

AND I still haven't finished my Terry Pratchett book.  Yes!  A Book!  Paper!  Not PC!  My 'I'll go up to bed earlier to read it' strategy has gone right out the window. 

Oh and I'm disagreeing with Stephen King now - but what do I know? :D  He's probably right.  But I do find my thesaurus rather handy :D

Look - not a rushed late night post... now do I go back to a tad more writing, or should I read ? 

whoo hoo!  Exercise night :D

Distance: 2.20 miles
Time: 21.41 minutes
Average pace: 9.50 mins per mile (really pushed myself today)

I ran for 9 seconds longer tonight than Monday, and ran 0.20 miles further!  So that shows I was much quicker :D  I think the banana toffee muffin I had in Costa's today with my Cappuccino helped - kids free!!!!

Right, might do some reading whilst I wait for tea to cook - then on to WRITING! :D

Well, I'm really in the mood to write.  Something came to me of a sort of ending for One More Lie (probably need to discuss that on bunnies someday) but I had a scene in mind to build up to it and so HAD to write it :D  And I keep on thinking about the next story, with Daniel - oh yes! oh yes!

Also, on other news, on Points West tonight (our local BBC news) the screenplay writer for Mamma Mia! was on there.  She's from Bristol, and like JK Rowling, she's a single mother of two.  And now she has under her belt the show and now the film!   Anyway, just shows, any one of us writers could be next :D I'm a mother of two - but not single - but hey if I have to divorce my husband to sell a story - then so be it!  :D

I'M JOKING !!!!  ::sarcastic mode cancel:: :D

But hey, anyway, I just thought it was kinda inspiring.  Can I think of the woman's name?  And I thought they'd have it so I could pin point you to the website.  But no!  I did think she looked liked Delia Smith though lol!

Right... back to my writing.  Some how I don't see myself as the next J K Rowling though ;O)

Word count is standing at 9,381 - but there are some notes in there - I reckon this could easily be 15-20k story again.
