Am I Verbose?

January 17th, 2003 Comments Off on Am I Verbose?

I had one of those days when things just weren’t clicking. I have two stories that I had to have finished today: one article is supposed to be 700 words and the other 900. My drafts on these came in at 795 and 1014. After begging the designer for more word count and getting laughed at, I spent the afternoon cutting them both down, only to discover that I ended up with 840 and 1026 words respectively. I think this is why I’m not the one in business school: never did grasp that addition vs. subtraction thing.

Off to bed, because tomorrow morning we’re going to wake up early to head down (yes, down) to New York for the long weekend. So you may not hear from me for a few days.

    I read, I write, I occasionally look to make sure my kids aren't playing with matches.

    My novel, MODERN GIRLS will be coming out from NAL in the spring of 2016.

    I mostly update the writing blog these days, so find me over there.

    More about me and my writing.
