An update (or two)

Well, July 2nd is around the corner, the deadline for my free proof reading copy and I've barely edited anything. Surprisingly I'm okay with that. I just need to organize everything so that I can se what everything looks like, write the introduction for myself, edit slightly, and then send it off. (Now watch as my plans get turned upside down on me)
I'm reworking my main novel, Rebel, for what feels like the 20th time - but I've probably done it more than that. It's turning steampunkish on me, and I get to burn down an entire city towards the end, which is kind of awesome, mostly because I actually know how it's going to end.
I can't plot out my novels and stick to the plot, not even if my life depended on it. I'll start, and Ill be going along pretty well and then a wisp will whistle by me, tantalizingly intriguing and before you know it I've dropped everything and am chasing it around with a butterfly net.
The band ALL CAPS has become my inspiration lately.
I need to stop watching the X-men movies (With Hugh Jackman as Wolverine) so close to bedtime. Late at night is when I get my wacky ideas that might just work, and there has been just way too much inspiration going around.
So how are all of you doing?
