Now I can check off putting money aside to hire an editor. Got a raise this week. Now I can save up for editing and marketing before I self-publish next year!

I never realized how badly I wanted my husband to like my writing until tonight.

Pleased to say he did not disappoint. 😊

@thom_galvin I want to make people excited to keep reading my books. I want to hear about how people read them again and again.

I would love to make writing my full time job, but if I only ever got a few people who were as excited about my words as I am, that would be enough.

@GregMcNic We played an online video game together. I built his computer. He was there for me during a very rough time. We've now been married for 8 years. 🥰

@KatV07 @TyCardon Those loans had contingencies like keeping people employed (which how can you do that if states force you to close?) and have to be paid back eventually (which goes can you do that if the states force you to close?)

Even my husband, who hates cats, laughed at this!

[Kim Chance 🦄 @kimwritesbooks]

This made me giggle incessantly. I love this cat!

@omg_giant_rock Well, I was on track to win until my accident.

Still a win in my book, though. Got 30k more words than I had before. I had many days where I wrote 2,000+ words because I had a goal to work toward.

@AuthorJFuller I prefer leapt. I think it more closely matches how we actually say it.

Oh, and I'm American for the American vs British thing. Course, I also like "grey" better than "gray" and wouldn't mind the occasional U thrown into my words.

@KCwriterartist This is awesome! Screen shotted this to try out later. Been planning on nachos this week so I'll have an excuse to test it out! Thanks so much! I can't wait to try it!

[📖🖋️ C. M. Simao Writes 🎄 @CSimaoWrites]

@KCwriterartist Yes please! Love both white and yellow cheese sauce so that'd be awesome!

[📖🖋️ C. M. Simao Writes 🎄 @CSimaoWrites]

@KCwriterartist I have actually made my own mix before and it wasn't bad, but it's not a great comparison because I was cutting dairy at the time. Still want bad, all things considered, though.

[📖🖋️ C. M. Simao Writes 🎄 @CSimaoWrites]

@KCwriterartist It's super easy. I just get the ranch mix (hidden valley, but there are other good ones, too) mix as directed with milk and mayonnaise. I make it in small batches so it doesn't go bad. But it's way better than the bottled stuff.

@AshTudor888 I could never do that to my poor baby! I'd be too worried about cracking the screen.

@MLChristiansen This is the thing I hate the most. Being presumed guilty of being a plague spreader. And there's no way to prove your innocence.

[📖🖋️ C. M. Simao Writes 🎄 @CSimaoWrites]

This is painfully accurate! https://t.co/BlAYRHSXig

@Brookelorren @Katie_Masters29 Thank you! It will be a while before I know how well I'm recovering, but my pain is not as severe as it was.

And yeah, I wasn't going to do NaNo at first, but I'm glad I at least tried. I learned so much about myself as a writer and got a solid start on my book!

[📖🖋️ C. M. Simao Writes 🎄 @CSimaoWrites]

@Katie_Masters29 I'm okay with 30k. I started not expecting to win because of the stress I'm under. But I did surprisingly well, being ahead of the curve most of the month.

The accident messed up my plans, but it wasn't a waste. I got Autocrit and started polishing book 1. That makes me happy.

[📖🖋️ C. M. Simao Writes 🎄 @CSimaoWrites]

@MaxieZeusGod @BubbleyBrain @KCwriterartist Yes! Unagi sauce is the bomb!
