What's that I hear, La Di Da? I was just washing the bathroom floor (part of my pre-writing ritual... I told this to my Writing for Children class last week and I could tell they thought it was very WEIRD), and I heard myself singing "La Di Da."

"La Did Da? What is that strange song -- and badly sung, too?" you may ask. Well, it's the sound of a writer who's about to settle in at her computer and do a little writing!! This is going to be a very busy week -- I'm giving exams at school and I'm doing a Blue Met teleconference on Thursday morning -- so my writing time is feeling extra precious. I'm back to my George River manuscript this week. I'm hoping to be able to submit the first four chapters and a synopsis to my editor at Orca -- by the end of next week. Hope you've got something to do today that makes you sing, too!
