anna: Glad to hear it! These success stories hearten me.

Paula: Hee, I’m glad you enjoyed it! It’s so hard when they’re total teases isn’t it?! But here’s to perseverance!!! We can pwn our WIPs!!!

Larissa: Aw, thank you. I hope you’re right. :)

You are awesome.

And, after such angst, I’m sure your book is, too.

You crack me up!!!

This line: I mean, let’s face it. Clicking the MS Word icon and waiting for the program to start is a pain in the ass.

Gold!

But having had a similar relationship with my WIP, I can relate. We’re at the, let’s work it out-stage. But I sort of feel like the girl with the perpetual crush on a guy who will flirt with her but not really commit. My book is a tease!

This had me in fits of giggles, because I just went through the same kind of relationship difficulties with my book. We’re starting again, too, and going to counselling. An outside opinion seems to keep things on track. :)

How is that everything I wanted to say was already said by Suze and Emily! I was out of the country and couldn’t comment. Not fair! I’m glad that you and Book made up, I was going to offer to step in and mediate if needed ;)

Sue: Aw! <3 I hope you and Book 1 can make it work. :)

Celise: Heh, come to think of it, I have gone through a lot of divorces too. And not amicable ones! Thanks for reading and commenting!

Min: Aw, thank YOU.

Danette: Yay! I’m glad they toed the line & you got it into your editor. :) That’s a happy ending!

Oh, Courtney,

Thanks for being so honest about the struggle with Edward. Bono and Adam were hard to work with this summer–uncooperative and distracted–but they finally toed the line and I slipped my MS to my editor right on time.

Wow. Okay. I never would’ve thought about it like that. But if I did, Wow, needless to say I’ve gone thru a lot of divorces. LOL. I loved the line about your book missing you because you’re so foxy. LOL. Loved. It. Great post.
