The Manuscript Mavens are doing a special Halloween “Choose Your Own Adventure” project, so stop by, catch up on the story and vote. (I’m one of the guest authors, so vote good, folks!)

You may have noticed that blog posts have been a bit thin on the ground in the last few weeks. That’s because I’m so busy I can’t see straight. I’ve got revisions due for Rites of Spring Break, plus another book to write, plus that whole pesky wedding thing happening in — eep! — just a few days. And yes, the proper adjective for wedding is “pesky.” Some people say “lovely” but I say pesky. And I say that because I have a forty-item To Do Before The Wedding list sitting on my desk right now.

I’ve handed a bunch of these items off to Sailor Boy. My brother, who got married this summer, once made the unfortunate comment that a groom’s only job was to show up at the wedding in a tux and say “I Do” at the appropriate moment. My poor sister-in-law, widowed before her time.

Back to the grind/table arrangements/revisions/programs/dry cleaning…

    that whole pesky wedding thing

    Your brother’s right – Sailor Boy has the easy part. On the other hand, you’ve probably already done all the major stuff – invitations, catering, etc. – and the rest is just icing on the (wedding) cake, as it were. Relax a bit and enjoy your last few days as a bachelorette!

    (Ick. Don’t like that word. Let’s go with Shakespeare: your last few days of “single blessedness”. Ahh – much better!)

    The wedding’s in a few days? Wow! And it seems like just yesterday you told me about the engagement in an e-mail.

    Good luck on revisions, and the writing! And whacking away at your To Do list! If I don’t comment again before the wedding, the good luck and best wishes!!! I hope the entire day is magical for you both!
