Getting Red carpet Ready

My copy of the A List Workout arrived last week. They have a number of 12 week programmes -- including one for weight loss. The whole aim is to get you red carpet ready.And as thesavoy is in about 12 weeks...it seems a perfect time to up my exercise level.

Funnily enough, the one factor most people need is dedication. I found this highly ironic as I am always quoting -- dedication, desire, determination and discipline to my cps and anyone else who will listen. It would appear that if one wants to lose weight and shape up, one needs the same sorts of behaviour. Dedication and persistence will get you far in most things.

I was uncertain about the book, but it appears to be very good and well thought out. I am into town later to purchase a stability bad and a set of resistance bands. Determination here. But then I also too k my measurments. ACK!! There is one thing about weighing yourself and quite another thing about taking your measurements.

On the writing front, I have sent my partial off to my lovely editor, and have promised her the full by the end of March. Both my cps appear to like it, and I am getting to the point where I do have to write the story. I never feel like I am fully into astory until I reach about page 80. After that I know I must finish this story. My word count is going up, and I am starting to get a better grasp of the structure.

I will still admit to envying various writer's collages, charts and other methods, but right now the best way for me to work is to write. Dedication again.

sounds like you're going to be busy, Michelle! Thanks for taking the time to stop by the Q&A on "Worldbuilding" -- it was good to have you there and interesting to read your comments!
