Celebrate the Small Things 2-5-25

 

It's the end of the week, so it's time to Celebrate the Small Things.

What am I celebrating this week?

It's the weekend!

I have a few things on this weekend, so I'm probably not going to get a whole lot of writing done.  Plus, I'm starting to think that maybe the problem I'm having with the book is that I'm writing it from the wrong POV.  I've been enjoying writing Arlo's diary entries far more than Devon's parts, so I'm curious about maybe trying to write the whole this as Arlo's diary.  There is a section he wouldn't be able to write, but I think it could make sense for Devon to fill in his diary at that point.

So I might have a go at splitting out the diary entries and having a go at telling the whole story that way.  Why do I always prefer writing boys?  And why do my boys always have more voice than my girls?  It's weird.

I've had a couple more rejections for A Stranger to Kindness which is disappointing.  I need to get to sending another round of queries.

We had a huge storm here yesterday and it has got really, really cold.  I think winter has hit for real now.

What are you celebrating this week?
