Finished (sort of)

Several months ago I said that writing a book is NOT like washing your car. And I'm so exhausted this morning that that sounds really profound to me again.

I guess what I mean is that even though Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy is out of my hands for a few days doesn't mean the work is over entirely. There will be more edits and proofreading, but the heavy lifting (I hope) is done.

And of course, in celebration, I got sick...because I've been clinging to my last thread of health for weeks just looking for a chance to fall onto the couch and stay there about a week. So that's where I am--the couch. This is also where I hope to be until Monday morning.

have a great weekend, everyone!
Ally

Sorry you're feeling sick, Ally! You deserve a lovely congratulatory dinner and movie of your choice. *Begins whipping up something gourmet and yummy.* Just sit there on the couch and relax.
