Breakposting
I'm working steadily away on the line-edit for So Totally Emily Ebers and making good progress -- I do about ten pages an hour, so I'm on p. 83 of 283, and on track to hit my goal of p. 100-by-6-p.m. with time to spare. But I also believe firmly in regular breaks to reinforce my focus when I go back to work. So hello from my editing break, and now on to the excitement that waits for me on p. 84 . . .
I'm glad to hear it! It was Lisa's idea, after much brainstorming.

Hmmm...catchy! And will be well remembered too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great title! I can't wait to hear more details about Lisa Yee's next book.
ReplyDeleteLisa is leading a humor workshop in Orlando and I would love to see her speak, but my last and next novels are both YA, so I thought I should take that track. I wish Lisa was able to give an additional workshop the day before or after the conference. All the writers who have taken her workshops always rave about them.
