Yes. Now we panic.
Wait. Have I lost you? The Amazon
Breakthrough Novel Award contest opens in 3 days. Between now and
then I need to:
Finish 43 pages of my OWN edit.
Incorporate Leigh's feedback
Incorporate Helena's feedback on the
excerpt
Clean up the pitch... Thank you SO MUCH
everyone who gave feedback! I really think I've got what I need to
polish this puppy til it's fluffy! (and by fluffy, I mean fabulous).
FORMAT the excerpt (it is pasted, and
so you need to manually add double spacing between paragraphs, not a
HUGE ordeal, but with 15 pages or so, it takes time).
My PLAN *Buwahahahahahahaha* is
to do the first today, the second two Saturday and the last two
Sunday.
In the meantime, let me amuse you...

You can do it, Hart!
Like the last two. And no one uses their phone as a phone anymore either.
Go, Hart, Go.

Good luck with the ABNA, Hart!! I'm sure you are gong to RAWK!
Love the cat and the hummingbird pics. Too funny!
Good luck on the contest, Hart. I've never entered, but I know the pitch is a killer.
Ah, so the Alternet ABNA writer's bubble, fueled with caffeine and panic, is headed your way. BEST OF LUCK!
I really loved your concept. Crossing all appendages for you!
HAH! LOVED the last one!
And super good luck with ABNA! I'll be cheering you on!
Pulling for you. What great material!
All in your camp. Knock 'em dead. (as it were)

You can do it! Good luck with ABNA. :)
Good luck with the ABNA!
Each year I tell myself I won't get nervous about it, won't check the forums obsessively, won't hit refresh a zillion times waiting for the results to be posted....but I do anyway! LOL
You'll do it! We know you will!

Tossing It Out
Best of luck to you - sending you speedy editing vibes!
I've done the math on mine, and I'm not going to make by the 14th. Here's hoping the window stays open long enough. But even if it doesn't, the deadline was exactly what I needed to get my rewrite back on track, so I won't be too heartbroken.
You can do it, Hart! Just don't sleep this weekend. (Seriously, you'll do it and sleep well.)
I love the 1950's question. The answer is so true.
I'll be rooting for you in ABNA!
Good luck, Hart!!! Do it do it do it!!
Thanks for the LOLs - good luck!
You can so do this! Good luck.
:-D Love the funny pics.
I like that last one too!
You can do it all, I've seen you do it before.

I'm really glad I know someone who is so knowledgeable about this. I've been over on Amazon reading your thread.
I also wanted to tell you (I commented on the post below but forgot to mention) that I ADORE the concept of your book. It sounds really great!!
I hope you do really well in the contest and thanks for the funny pics!!
Go girl Go! You will do it like always. Good luck on the Amazon Entry. I'm rooting for you!
Love the last one. I see this all the time on Facebook and wonder about the odd fascination with worshiping cats and the unnecessary drama between complete strangers.
You can do it!!!!! I've got total faith in you because you're awesome.
*grabs hands* <3
