Yeah...but 3 pages in a month?  I wrote the first part and it was AWFUL so I stepped away for a while, then went back a couple of days ago and rewrote it and got a little further.  Not so good for me because I usually am able to flow after I get started, and I have opened it many times and stared at the blinking cursor.  I am running low on mojo lately.  You are lucky to only have one chapter left!  I just want to get through Casual, once I'm finished, not sure if I will start anything else for a long time, if at all...

Hopefully you will find your mojo to finish up your story...one chapter isn't too bad, you can do it!

I know 3 pages doesn't seem like much in a month, but I think that happens to us all at some point when we're writing a story. You'll get over that hump soon enough and get another chapter out. :) When I first started writing fanfics I would write a chapter a day. It was ridiculous and burnt me out. lol

Ok, I still say that The Host is probably my favorite book, and oddly enough, Mare, it's her Characters that make me love the story. The relationships developed in that book are so different. But seeing as how I've read it so much, and we've already had a big Twilight discussion on AC before, I think I'll be voting for something new. I'm not sure which one yet though. I have to think about it.

Sorry for missing June! This has been an insane month for me. Plus, I won't read books like that one. I won't watch movies about things like that either. I won't even watch the news. I just can't handle stuff like that. All the depressing realistic stuff is too much for me.

Hey Julie, when is the deadline to vote on the book selection? It should probably happen soonish.

Yeah, it should!  Someone needs to break the tie!  I'd say as soon as the tie is broken, that's what we go with.

I've just broken the tie without even noticing. I love those Twilight books so much, so had to vote New Moon :)
