Done and dusted!!!

I've finally finished writing 'First Time for Everything'. *breathes a huge sigh of relief* I never thought it would actually happen so I am very relieved as I'm sure are a few other people. *lol*

I've ended up with the final part being A, B, C and D. Yes D! I guess I got a bit carried away. *looks away sheepishly* I'm not totally sure about the final bit of part D and hopefully the girls at RCWW will let me have their honest opinions so I can make any changes if necessary. Once again, I am so grateful to Val and Sarah for coming up with the writing group. It's been such a big help.

Oh, I received a postcard from Vera this morning. She's currently in Lanzarote and (I think) she gets back home this weekend. I've really missed her and I can't wait to hear what she thinks of First Time. I've got a feeling she'll be very surprised to see I've finished it. ;)

I went out with Janet to the shopping center this morning. I didn't buy anything special, just stocked up on toiletries as I was running low on a few things.

Janet's feeling a bit better which is good although she's still having trouble swallowing. She has to pick up another prescription tomorrow as her dosage of penicillin has been increased.

I finally received Embrace's new album the other day and I have to say it is awesome. My favourite song has to be, Gravity, the first single taken from it.


Gravity


Honey, it’s been a long time coming and I can’t stop now
Such a long time running and I can’t stop now
Do you hear my heart beating?
Can you hear that sound?
Cause I can’t help thinking
And I won’t look down

And then I looked up at the sun and I could see
The way that gravity turns for you and me
And then I looked up at the sky and saw the sun
And the way that gravity pulls on everyone
On everyone

Baby, it’s been a long time waiting
Such a long long time and I can’t stop smiling
No I can’t stop now
Do you hear my heart beating?
Do you hear that sound?
Cause I can’t help crying
And I won’t look down

And then I looked up at the sun and I could see
The way that gravity turns on you and me
And then I looked up at the sun and saw the sky
And the way that gravity pulls on you and I
On you and I

Can you hear my heart beating?
Do you hear that sound?
Cause I can’t help crying
And I won’t look down

It's such an awesome song and I definitely recommend it.
 
Wow!!!

I got such a lovely surprise when I checked my e-mail this morning. I found out that I've been nominated in several categories at the Tangled Web Awards, which is a One Tree Hill fanfic awards site. I am so flattered especially as I've only been writing for that fandom for such a short time.

There were so many cute buttons to choose from but you can see the one I finally decided on if you look over to the right-hand side of the page.

I've also been nominated in a few categories at The Pixie Stick Awards which is also very cool.

The last few days I've been feeling a bit down thanks to the nasty e-mails I've been receiving about my writing so being nominated in two different fandoms has really boosted my confidence and made me more determined to keep writing.

A big thank you to everyone who's nominated me. *hugs*

Speaking of writing, I've just finished another Nathan and Haley one-part fic which you can read here:
