I'm barely keeping my head above water in the NaNo thusfar. But I've got a pretty good chance of winning again if I can really buckle down and focus this final week. This is a lot more difficult when there's work and social gatherings and internets and video games to contend with. I think I'll do it though.

Nobody will get to read the first draft, as first drafts are far too terrible to share. The second draft, however, will go out to a select um...selection of preferred readers. Let me know if you want to be on that short list.

In cooking news, I used my bread machine for the first time today. The middle of the top of the loaf caved inward. I think it rose too high and touched the top of the machine, making it deflate. Other than it looking funny and not really browning on top, it was delicious and had a good texture. Any idea what I should be doing differently? It was a deluxe white recipe, just milk, butter, bread flour, sugar and yeast.

Also, Daniel Radcliffe is going to be on Inside the Actor's Studio in December.
Awesome!

Ooh! Ooh! Pick me! Pick me! : )

Oh, and I've been meaning to tell you, R read The Cat's Apprentice and liked it, even better than Sadie.

Okay, I pick you!
I'll let you know when it's ready, it'll be a few months probably.

Glad to hear R liked Cat's Apprentice. I figured it would be successful with anyone who didn't love Sadie.

Yay! Can't wait.

He liked Sadie, actually. Just liked Cat's Apprentice a little more. He liked the supernatural aspect of it.

That's pretty cool.
