I do like True Blood, although I missed the latest season. <br /><br />Editing is always rewarding and it's fun to see a story come together.

I'm predominantly on the editing side of things (editing for others) right now, though I am trying to focus on my poetry whenever I can. When I *do* have free time, though. I prefer Dexter, True Blood, or, currently, Honey and Clover (anime) on Netflix. Supernatural's good too, though. :DLauren I.

I have to admit, I don't watch much television. Most the time it's the two shows above. I'll have to check out the ones you have mentioned. <br /><br />Thanks Jennifer! I did find revisions to be fun, even though at times it was a lot of work. Knowing every change was improving the story made it worth it. <br /><br />It sounds like we all do pretty much the same thing while we wait. Must be a writer thing.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Cherie Colyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13205065477147957455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6255198579479008085.post-87713278342713054802011-09-22T10:32:37.225-05:002011-09-22T10:32:37.225-05:00Congrats on getting through round one of edits!

Omnific has accepted my next novel but I'm waiting to hear when we'll get started editing, so I hear ya on the impatience thing. I like to read as well, and am catching up on the romantic suspense genre as well as keeping up with book club selections.

Keeping a full time paying gig and single parenting can be busy enough. Then I'm writing and blogging and sneaking in some bed time, you know, to maintain my sanity. But even then, with all the business of life, I still have to play the waiting game for many of the reasons you mention, like the queries and feedback.
