Meeting 18 April

I'm really looking forward to the next meeting too - so much so that I've even cleaned my windows; well, Red cleaned the outside quite vigorously and I smeared some stuff around on the inside. We'll be able to see out now!

Be interesting to see how everyone's doing - I met my commitment to start something new but haven't got much beyond that. Will have to be a bit more adventurous with my next 'vow'.

Looking forward to seeing whoever can make it!

Looking forward to the meeting next week. Am excited with the new way we are heading. Promised to have my characters and plot sorted and am actually on to it. Found a really good book to follow and its helping me heaps.
Was wondering about the site one or some of the girls were using to get pictures as a guide to the appearance of their characters. Any tips?

Brought home from Leigh's Abby Gaines' 'The Diaper Diaries' - it's a good read! Really likeable hero and heroine and subtle writing - makes me realise I'm a bit over-the-top with the conflict and my characters are overwrought by comparison - I need to go back to the drawing board!

I had invited a speaker to the next meeting of RWNZ but unfortunately she's declined. Anyone have any bright ideas to make the next meeting as inspirational as the last one?

My son emailed me this morning from the U.K. He and his partner are going to visit a friend in Portugal. The friend's name is Chase Valentin and that's why I'm writing this post - what a fabulous name for a romantic hero - you wouldn't read about it!

Remember to sign your name on your post

Hi
Because, hopefully, many of us will use the blog to communicate with each other, it's probably necessary to sign your name at the end so we know who is talking!

Well - I've fulfilled the commitment made at Leigh's on Saturday - I've begun a new romance novel. No title but my hero and heroine have names. I don't know what they look like yet. This bit is the easy bit - it's keeping the story going that I find so hard - I generally run out after the third chapter. People who committed to a chapter a week are amazing!
