I hauled myself off the sofa and pulled on my tracksuit last night to go to weightwatchers. Guess how much I lost? Four pounds, four whole pounds. That's six pounds in a fortnight. Yay!!! Still feeling crappy today but I think the antibiotics are kicking in now.
Blue Remembered Heels is going like a train at the moment. I've almost finished the first chapter thanks to the writing challenges at Romance Diva's. The plot is almost there in my head so I can tackle the synopsis soon. I don't know what kind of reaction this is going to get though. If I try to explain it as it stands at the moment it'll sound a bit off the wall - which it is, but hopefuly in a good way. This story really excites me so I'm hoping for good things with it. I've done a bit more on Places To Go but I think I'll get Blue Remembered Heels ready and entered in the Waterstones Chick lit contest then focus on Places To Go - barring anything exciting happening from M&B of course.
La, my eight year old informed me this morning that she could see I'd lost weight. "Because before your tummy was all round and out there and now it isn't." She said as she helpfully patted my tee shirt down. I think it was a compliment.

It, er, sounds like a compliment! The Monkey Children have taken to giggling and calling me "squishy."
And yay on your first chapter! Aren't those challenges great! I finished a 16K word short story in 10 days because of those challenges!
I've got to join something.
So rotund you could roll me down the street.

Yay on the 4 pounds, that's great! Glad the writing's going well :)
I think I might have stolen your four pounds... *G*
Looking forward to reading some of BRH!

Six pounds is a lot! Hope you are feeling better and congrats on your collection of wips (sounds a bit S&M) and seeing your book in print.
You rock, Nell!
