Friday Funnies: Hurry Up ... Laugh!




Hello My happy People,


Today is going to be short and sweet. I am so behind my schedule today. I need to run, run, run!


Quick updates:

Thanks to Ann Charles (who will be my guest for episode 74 on July 12th) I am going to try writing both The Touch and Free Bad Haircuts with Each Craniotomy at the same time. I will switch back and forth each week.


Thanks to Natasha Deen (who will be my guest for episode 75 on July 19th) I got a plotting program she recommended and have plotted out both The Touch and Free Bad Haircuts with Each Craniotomy and will begin writing them very soon. I am currently doing some research and making notes for both.


I hope to finish my edits for Into the West: Family Ties this weekend. I will be publishing the seventh and final book in the same design as all the previously published books in this serial and then doing a redesign of the covers for a special set. Eventually the old cover will be discontinued, but I want the last one to be available in the same style as the previous books until everyone who wants the original set has time to get theirs.


I may have found the software I need to create a flipbook online magazine. Currently we are hoping for an September or October launch. Cross your fingers ... this could be great!


But for now ... on with the jokes!


Have a great weekend,

Dianne
