Ten in 2010

It's that time again! Sharpen those pencils to try your hand at 10 word stories. Since I've been deep in a revision, I will confess that my brain is tapped out. I can barely put one word in front of another.

So today is Wild Card day. You get to pick your own word. Next month, I promise, I'll have something more specific to offer (feel free to offer ideas!). But today, it's all yours. Take it away! My ten-worder is inspired by the fact that I still wish I could go back and edit books that have already been published. The urge to revise is eternal!

*The End

Words written with smoke, not ink.
The end isn't ever. . .*

  3. It was a terrific trip, Kirby - four wonderful schools in Omaha. And now I'm finishing the last chapters of the new novel's first draft. I'm determined to finish the book by the end of the week so I can give it to my critique group next Tuesday!

    Old friends hugging.
    New ideas brewing.
    Eating yummy cookies.
    Priceless.
