As for me? I'm not any farther along with my story than I've been for the last few months.
I know I have to jump back into it, it's just such a crazy time of year that I feel like I can't focus.
I'm supposed to treat this writing thing like a job, but I can always convince myself there is something more important to do.
On the plus side, both of my 'editors' liked what they read, so I've got that going for me. :)
I hope your writing is going ... well ... that it's going.
I'll leave you with some funnies.

Those were awesome! Not sure which one I like better - Chucky, Star Wars, or the murderous Rudolph.
ReplyDeleteThanks for mentioning my book! And Jeremy's. My post was already overflowing, so I'll be plugging Six Strings for him next week.
Oh Rudolph! Hysterically sick!
ReplyDeleteGreat funnies! I'm slowly plugging away as I normally do. =)
ReplyDeleteI'm dying! The kid and the creepy doll. OH MY WORD:))) My youngest son took a pic of him and a very creepy doll at an antique store over Thanksgiving. Hee hee. Just the good ole days:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the funnies! That tiny tot one made me choke on my drink.
ReplyDeleteIt really is a hard time of year to focus. I know I'm struggling with it. I'm hoping that things will improve on that front in January.
You go, Rudolf. Those funnies are awesomely hilarious. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI needed that. Fun.
ReplyDeleteFun! I loved it! Thanks for the fun post. All the best!
ReplyDeleteHubby and I have loved all of Alex's books. I'm excited for this new one. Once we finish building a house. :D
ReplyDeleteThe picture of Rudolph cracked me up. I remember watching that movie every year as a kid and being scared to death of the ice monster. Imagine how scary it would have been if Rudolph had taken his revenge on his fellow reindeer. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the covers of these books. All power to IWSG writers. I love the pictures you provide with your post. And yes, I remember that dolls usually killed your family too. Have a wonderful holiday!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure we should think of writing as a job - unless it's a job we love and really want to spend time on.
ReplyDeleteIf your editors are giving you the thumbs up, then you're in a sweet spot.
ReplyDeleteHAHA! I love the first gif.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I have a hard time being serious about writing. This time of year always makes it harder too. So much to do.
I agree with Patricia, I love the first one!!
ReplyDeleteYou'll get back in the swing, and as long as your editor likes what you've written, you're golden!!!
Haha! Great pictures. Two editors? Wow! How did you decide to go that route?
ReplyDeleteI loved the tater tot one! That Rudolph one looks familiar.... ;)
ReplyDeleteI think everyone should give themselves a break this month. It's hard to concentrate. We work hard. We'll get back to it in January, when everyone else is at the gym.
LOL those were funny! Glad your editors liked what they read. My writing is actually going...somewhat, anyway.
ReplyDeleteRudolph = death!!! LOL
ReplyDeleteThank you for featuring Alex's book.
Thanks for the smiles :) Have a lovely December.
ReplyDeleteHi Heather ... love the funnies - and those tiny tots in particular. Congratulations to Alex and Jeremy ... great news re your editors - so here's to 2017 and a head start with your writing - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteCongrat on your news. Love the humor. Congrats Alex. Happy Holidays.
ReplyDeleteJuneta @ Writer's Gambit
Great funnies. Loved the Tiny Tots best. LOL I know what you mean about it being difficult to focus. Take one day at a time, even if you write just a few paragraphs. Best wishes.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and your family.
