The Cottage of Blog

The Cottage of Blog

Good evening from The Cottage of Blog.

It's always exciting getting a new piece of furniture for your home.
I was reminded how exciting, when someone sent a Redneck list of photos. Well, my claim to redneck fame, is my Redneck work center.
One old file cabinet, bent, holding files from 1950 and my Dell tower with a stack of papers on top, a computer cart dating at least from the 80's given to me second hand from a friend, a picnic table with a wobbly leg propped up by books I have no intention of reading again. the gray, weathered table holds my printer, phone, books, bunches of printouts of my manuscript, and serves as a place where I eat while I type. A tall, nice, shiny new five drawer file cabinet sits next to the table. My only dilemma will be where to eat? I don't want to go into the dining room for each meal. Bruce suggested a TV table tray. Think I'll do that. Might just work.

I have three days off. There are some advantages of being a teacher.
Something really exciting. Tomorrow night I'm having dinner with Debra Dixon, one of my craft writing idols. She wrote GMC, Goal, Motivation and Conflict. A book I cherish and have used for years.
She will be giving a workshop at my RWA writing group on Saturday.
Realy exciting stuff. And no, I will not be having dinner alone with Ms. Dixon. I will be accompanied by eight to ten ladies who actually run the show. :-) grin.

I'm going to lie down while my dogs eat dinner, then go to bed for real. Tomorrow morning, I plan to finish my character sketch on Annie, do one on Mark and one on Duncan. then work out a setting for the second half of the story.

Happy reading, writing and revising from The Cottage of Blog.
