That's my update for this mother's day weekend. I am 23.k words into my revisions/rewrite. I just rewrote my favorite scenes this past weekend, and am into the harder part--the emotional wreckage part. This is going to be so hard to write that I kind of wish I could just skip it :) Overall, though, I'm really liking the revisions. I just added a fun kick-ass (literally) scene that I always love writing, and otherwise I feel like I've got a better grasp on setting and characters. I hope, at least!
Other than that, I've got the last of my two job applications I need to get in this next week. This is the one I'm really crossing my fingers for, though I'm TOTALLY not qualified. Ah, but who wouldn't want to be at Stanford? I mean, have you seen the campus? It's beyond pretty. And they have more money than any school should have. Honestly. It kind of makes me annoyed. Of course, I could put up with it if they let me come work there. And the coolest part is that they're in Palo Alto, where they have a bunch of awesome signings for Not Your Mothers Book Club, which I've always wanted to go to but have never managed to make it down because it's too far to drive. A little added motivation :)
Happy Mother's Day to everyone out there, mothers or not. We all went hiking this afternoon with my mom, up to a really beautiful outlook point in Fairfield. I hope everyone else managed to do something as fun!
