Sometimes I begin a new chapter with thoughts of the direction I want to take and write a paragraph or two, and then all of a sudden my characters take over and go in a whole different direction, as though they are writing the book. Happens quite often, actually.

I finished Part One today. I'm thrilled. I think It Must Have Been Love will have 3 parts. I'm 1/3 there. At just a little over 31,000 words now. Think I will celebrate.

I'm moving right along with It Must Have Been Love. I'm at 24,000 words. My goal is 75,000, so a thousand more and I'll be 1/3 there. The book has taken a few twists that I didn't expect.

I didn't get up until 10:00 this morning. That's because I didn't go to sleep until after 7:00. I worried all night about the predicament of four young girls.

My son bought me tickets to see Stephen King in person next week. He is taking questions from the audience and I am in the 9th row from the front! What can I ask? Oh dear, oh dear...
