Always a Bridesmaid: final edits
WBG query letter: written, edited (several times until success)
Blaze synopsis: edited (again, for the final time)

Busy day. First we went to lunch with Chris York at The Inn at Spanish Head. I had a shrimp melt that was awesome (cream cheese in the mix, Tilamook cheddar on top), and their homemade potato chips are fantastic. Then we popped down to the Internet café for a final dump of e-mail; I also finally remembered to back up all the work I’ve done here. (Yeesh.)

After that, we went to see “Chronicles of Riddick”. Interesting movie. A hugely different feel from “Pitch Black”. Some things did make me laugh in inappropriate places. But the story sucked me through, and the visuals were stunning.

Phaedra and I (who share a brain) took a walk on the beach, then both hit the computers. After much review from Dean (who rocks rocks rocks), I have both the Blaze (now called _Trusting Nate_, which actually came from Kris) synopsis polished and a new WBG query letter. Phew. I wish I could live here and get this kind of feedback all the time! (Note to self: Bring more proposals to Work-for-Hire workshop in August!)

Just about everyone else for the weekend workshop showed up tonight, and it was cool to meet new people and say hello to folks I already knew. Now, however, it’s once again late (how does this happen?), so I must be off. Story Structure/Writing Faster starts tomorrow, and we’ll have writing assignments for this one…

Happy Dark Moon!
