Jewel of the Sea – Chapter 23

Last week, I was a little distracted and didn’t get as much editing done.  I was feeling anxious about my flexible working request to reduce my hours.  Today, I had the meeting with HR and it couldn’t have gone better. I was almost dancing out of the office.

I feel like a load has been lifted off my shoulders and can now relax and focus on my novel.  As a result, it is only Tuesday but already I feel this week is being so productive.  This is the second chapter I’ve edited and I’ve already made a start of the next chapter. Plus, I have been working on my Pitch for PitMad (Pitch Wars).

I probably won’t take part in PitMad on 6 June as I don’t think my novel will be edited in time, however, it doesn’t hurt to get my pitch ready.  You can join the PitMad Challenge Facebook group and get help from Kathy Ver Eecke on your pitch.  

Does your personal life affect your novel writing – any tips for dealing with that?  Anyone doing PitMad this month?

Jewel of the Sea – Chapter 22

I tried to edit this chapter yesterday but something strange was up with Google Drive and it left me feeling a little paranoid about whether it would save my progress. 

It kept saying there was an error when it opened my documents or tried to create a new one.  

Everything seems back to normal today and I got it finished.   Have you ever worried about technology losing your work?
