Writing, Scavenger Hunts and Body Butter

The writing has been going pretty well. I’m almost 15,000 words in on my sci-fi romance. It’s always fun working on something new, and this time I even have a synopsis. It always helps if I know the direction I’m writing, but it’s never set in stone. I like to make stuff up as I go along, which sometimes means my synopsis ends up very different from the completed book. I also have this point mid-way where I wonder if I’m ever going to get to the length I planned, if I have enough plot. Somehow, it all works out. Don’t ask me how because I can’t explain it at all!

I mentioned the scavenger hunt I’m doing with Rainbow Reviews last week. I’m also participating in the Sultry Summer scavenger hunt, which closes on 30 June 2008. There are some great book prizes. Go on. Join the hunts. You have nothing to lose, although I bet your to-buy list will grow. Mine always does.

I love Body Shop’s body butter. Each year they have a sale where each tub is around $10 off. I thought I’d missed it so was very excited to receive an email informing me the sale was on during June. I went shopping in the weekend and brought six tubs to stock up the cupboard. My very favorite is the Brazil Nut butter, and I was aghast to hear they’re discontinuing this particular one. I’m going to have to buy some more. Evidently it’s popular in New Zealand, but not so much everywhere else in the world. People, have you no sense?????

I’m blogging over at Danger Zone today - Dr. Livingstone, I presume?

  1. I love Papaya. I’ve tried to use a couple of others but I always come back to Papaya. :D

    I love The Body Shop in the Seattle Airport, it’s super convenient. :D It’s just one of many reasons it’s one of my fav airports.


  2. Emma - I’ve used papaya before and quite liked it, but brazil nut…sigh…my total favorite.

    Evidently they introduce three new ones every year and remove three. Maybe I’ll take a liking to one of the new ones.
