happy weekend to all
For the first time in a very long time, it looks like I’m going to have a weekend free from my day job.

Wheeeeeeee

What should I do?

Sleep? Oh my yes, that would be the wise choice, since I’ve almost reached the walking-into-walls stage of sleep deprivation.

Write? Oooooo, that sounds even better.

Clean? Nope, that’s a dirty word to me this weekend (even though the house needs major work. It looks like the pilot episode of Attack of the Junk Mail around here -- sheesh).

Shop? So tempting, but no.

So it sounds like I’m going to write, unless some bad influence, a.k.a. my husband, decides we should go to the movies. Also, I need to avoid the TV, because we just subscribed to Showtime last week, and there are tons of movies on it that I haven’t seen. Tons of mediocre movies, I might add, but I’m tired enough to fall prey to that sort of thing.

Maybe I’ll also blog about my current YA project, since I’ve been keeping it slightly under wraps so as not to jinx it. We’ll see about that.

Hope you all have a great weekend. Do something you love, please. You deserve it.

Kate

You're writing a YA novel...? Sweet.

I vote for sleeping seeing how I'm going to do that right now.

This is the YA book that I want you to pick the soundtrack for, given some of your posts on your blog. So I'm glad you're excited about it.

Sleep is good. I imagine I will eventually succumb despite my desire to write, write, write.

SWEET..! See I thought you wanted it for something else but that's OKAY! Cool. In EG it's assumed that most folks like country, not true of course. What do you usually listen to? Hard rock? Easy listening on 94.7?

Well, for this particular book, most of the soundtrack would have to be rock. But some stuff a la Faith Hill or her ilk would be great too. The story is futuristic, and there are a few battle scenes, but most of the book is pure adventure. Pretty upbeat (which may be the kiss of death for the project). There's a romantic relationship, but this heroine has her whole life ahead of her and she knows it, so there's a lightness to that part that I really like.

I'm not really a country fan, although I am able to appreciate some of it, mostly the songs written and sung by females. Tough lives producing amazing lyrics and voices.
