Thoughts on a Lunch Break, Cloudy Edition

spryng- Hullo gorgeous, cloudy weather! I appreciate your cloudiness! I am not really prepared for the 90+ degrees coming up soon, so thank you!
- I have been so tired these past few days. If I didn't check and get a BFN on Tuesday, I might have been convinced I was pregnant. As it is, I think I'm either fighting something off that I got in Florida (an uncle copped to getting a cold as soon as he got home) or it's just leftover hormone malaise. Hormones, man. They can really fuck you up.
- Aah, I only have 12 days until the end of the month and I still have 30+ pages & 15k to edit, which doesn't include the new chapter I'm just now writing and the other new chapter that will probably follow it. But! I am feeling so much more confident about this story. And finally have a really good feel for how the whole four-story arc is going to progress. I'm excited about it again, which is good.
- Unfortunately, I'm also excited about another story that hit me upside the head recently. But I have promised myself I will finish GW first.
- Speaking of which, who might be interested in beta-ing come May-ish? I'm open to people who've read earlier drafts as well as fresh eyes. GW is a modern fantasy about faeries and a lady with gingerbread magic. It's less dark than it was and a bit more action-y, tending more towards the current status quo of urban fantasy than the literary vibe it had before. I've (hopefully) steered it away from the heavy character piece it was to something more focused on plot.
- 5k tomorrow morning, which is going to be fun after feeling like a train ran me down all the rest of the week. My goal has moved from finish it sub 30min to finish it period.
