Internet Problems and Cover Poll

Is anyone else getting a strange message when logging on to Blogger this morning? I suspect it's a problem with our Internet connection again - seems to go slow for a while on a Monday but I've never had a message about problems with the browser before. I've been trying to watch an interesting little video trailer from a well known writer and had to give up for now - even though it's only 7 minutes long! Hope this post gets through as it won't let me preview it.


I'll just mention that my lovely Midwinter Masquerade cover is in a current book cover poll on StoryFinds. If anyone has time to vote (and you think it deserves it), I'd be very grateful. Thanks in advance!

Trying to get my writing organised (again) and sorting out what I should I be doing now and in the next few months, but feeling strangely reluctant. Must be the Christmas spirit creeping up on me and insisting I concentrate on that instead. It's the Christmas 'mince pies and manuscripts' meeting at the writing group tomorrow before we finish until the New Year, and I'm looking forward to my Christmas lunch out with a friend on Thursday.

Do you find it difficult to concentrate on writing at the moment?

Of course I would vote for your lovely book cover but the link you have given won't take me to the page and even when I google it myself the site won't open so I'm not sure what's happening. I'll wait and try again later. As for the question on whether I have found it difficult to concentrate at the moment, I suppose the answer has to be no as I've just written a complete 4,000 word story with only a break to walk the dog! (Last week I struggled though).

Thanks, Wendy! Obviously something to do with the problems this morning - hope it's fixed now. Wow - well done on that long story!

Yes, it's difficult to write when there is so much to be done for Christmas and only 15 days to go!
I will go over and vote for your cover now, I think it's beautiful:)

Christmas certainly does cause a few distractions, but I think the prospect of the year ending has spurred me on to finish my novel, even the synopsis, which means today I'm knee-deep in wrapping paper instead of edits and revisions! Good luck with all your preparations, Rosemary, and enjoy your mince pies and your lunch. You deserve a break xx

Well done on finishing that novel, Joanna - and all the best with submissions!
