I'm doing my best to finish my wip so that I can send it off to the RNA NWS in time for the 31 August deadline. The deadline for me will actually be 24 August, because no post is delivered (or collected, I believe) on the weekends in Jersey! So, I'll need to make sure this is posted on the Thursday/Friday prior to the 31 August as it will be going parcel post and will take a couple of days to get to the UK.
Right now, there isn't a cat's chance in blackberries that it's going to be finished in time, but I'm going to keep tapping away and send the best wip possible in the time I have left. The book has already been written, but I've decided to change it - drastically - and therefore am in the middle of an almost total rewrite. Not the best timing to do this I'm sure you'll agree. I'd better get on with it then. Have a great week.

My scalp is shrinking (that's how I know stress)in sympathy for you Debs. Good time to remember fav Darwin quote: "Step by step. Method in all things."
Thinking of you Debs and cheering you on - you CAN do it!!

Love the mug Debs and am all for positive thinking. Just do your best and then a little bit more :-)
Good luck!
Best of luck Debs! Thought of you and your lovely garden when I was on the St Malo-Portsmouth ferry yesterday passing Jersey.
Good Luck, Debs! My horoscope (Gemini) said today that I shouldn't be pessimistic, but dip into my inner reservoir of hope and faith. That could apply to anyone aiming to get their WIP finished by the end of August or the 24th in your case!
And here's another inspirational Americanism for you: Go! Fight! Win!
You can do it, Debs!! x
Best wishes on getting it done! Here's hoping that the head cold disappears very soon. I think a large dose of chocolate should help. ;-)
Go, Debs, go!
Oh Debs, I'm sending many positive vibes your way! Good luck with the manuscript; I LOVE a cat's chance in blackberries, btw... :)
Good luck, Debs. Sounds like a lot of work but I'm sure it'll be worth it in the end.
Oooh best of luck Debs. I love the expression cat's chance in blackberries - never heard that before!
