This weekend, I have been virtually attending a continuing medical education conference. I attend this conference every year. About half the lectures are interesting and relevant. The rest are less so. During those, I typically write. I call it my write-a-thon.
This year, I haven't gotten as much writing done as I normally do. I'm wrapping up the last of the edits that my textbook needs, which has taken priority. Sadly.
Well, I was happily writing Lora when my younger son came into my office. He's 9. He heard the lecture going on and I flipped back to it so he could see what was going on. Here is the interaction that ensued.
Me, flipping to Scrivener: Lora.
B: Who's Lora?
Me, more than a little annoyed: My book? Lora Fletcher?
B: Oh! The girl with the bow and arrow! Are you famous?
My family is very supportive of my "hobby". It still warms my heart that they pay attention to these little details. The girl with the bow and arrow. Once I finalize the cover, she won't be the girl with the bow and arrow anymore! She's so much more.
Two and a half chapters left to write before I buckle down and start edits!
Until next time 😊
