Book 2 - The Sagging Middle

January 2010 -

Charlotte’s suitors are on the run.

Of course Muriel has helped her come up with ideas to reconsider their affection for her, making Charlotte not as perfect as they’d first thought.

By February I’m nearing the finish of the second book.

The end is in sight.

On the Homefront

October 2009 - I’m trying to adjust to the empty nest and I’m taking advantage of the quiet. November is the annual vacation. I’ll be Blogging at the annual Mini Maui Blog for the first two weeks of November.

November 2009 – I’m enjoying myself in the tropical paradise. When I return home Thanksgiving is right around the corner. The kids return and we send them off a few days later.

December 2009 – The kids take their finals right when they get back to school. Then they head back home for their Winter Break and will stay until well past the beginning of next year.

The Name Game

September 2009 - Charlotte’s suitors come and go very quickly. It’s a chore coming up with names, non-repetitive names, names that don’t sound similar—names I haven’t previously used.

I’m glad I spent the time making a list of characters back when working on the first book.
