So. At some point this week, I shall venture forth and buy Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
But not yet.
And possibly out of a fear of what may or may not be revealed in that book, I finished chapter 9 of "Secrets" last night. Of course, that might also be due to a massive fit of insomnia, or just a reaction to oh-god-it's-so-hot-I'm-practically-melting weather. (I hate trying to sleep when it's over 80 and the humidity is so high you can practically swim in the air. And it's a heck of a lot easier for me to write when I'm frustrated than when I'm just bored.)
Today I'm printing out the rough draft. I will attack it with the Editing Pen of Death, probably starting tomorrow, and may be able to send it to beta before I leave on vacation this Friday.
Or not.
I am, after all, a lazy bum. :-)
