I'm such a geek. . .















This is my "Chapter Editing Countdown Chain"

Yeah you can tell me how much of a geek I am. Go ahead.

When I saw that I was over halfway done with my edit on Emergence with my editor. I got a silly idea to make a chain to count down. So I cut SEVENTEEN strips of paper and wrote the chapter titles on them and stapled them together. Then I hung it on my wall where I have my chapter editing calendars.

Everytime I finish a chapter, I will tear or ceremoniously cut a link off. :)

GEEK! Sigh!

That's awesome! What a great idea. I'll bet it's so satisfying to cut off those links.

You are way more organized than I am.

Keep up the good work.

I think that's a fabulous idea. What a great way to stay psyched about a tough process. Way to go! (And Congrats again, btw, on the good news!)

I absolutely love that idea! I wouldn't call you a geek, I'd call you organized and creative! Sounds like something I would do. :D

Love it. Sometimes it helps to just have something tangible to reach for, doesn't it!
