Camy here: Oh, I guess this announcement is a little out of date. That's okay. Join this book club! These are great authors.
Blogging: I'm way too into my blog. As I told Heather, it's rather alarming how much I love blogging. Alarming as in send-for-the-guys-in-white-suits kind of alarming.
And I don't know why! Maybe it's the control freak part of me, because I have absolute control over my blog. Maybe it's the part of me that loves seeing my words in print. Maybe it's because my blog is so wonderfully PINK. I just like looking at it.
Oh well. I'm weird. So what else is new.
Bible in 90 Days: Day 56. I love the book of Daniel. I love how it's so specific in some of its predictions, which gives credibility for the other more confusing stuff. I love how angels are portrayed as powerful servants of God and not chubby naked babies with white wings (and BTW, who the heck thought of that?).
And now that I've read the previous books in the Old Testament, I have a deeper appreciation for this book. I understand the time period, how other figures during that time thought of Daniel, how the Lord and other nations viewed Babylon.
Have I mentioned yet how I'm loving this Bible in 90 Days thing???
Writing: Got some done this morning--getting some great characterization done using the Maass workbook exercises. If you haven't gotten this book, get it! I'm serious. It's helped me add so much TENSION and CONFLICT to this story. It seemed so blah in comparison now.
Diet: I lost a pound! 'Course, I'm still suffering with my portion control. Doing okay on the exercise. I really enjoy walking the dog cuz then I can listen to my writing workshops on MP3.

Thanks for the link. Not that I need another subscription, but hey why not. Speaking of subscriptions, am I on yours? I thought I signed up, but I haven't gotten anything in a while
