I just made myself a cup of Arizona brand pomegranate tea.



I used to drink this a lot when I was working on He's There last fall... it's so so SO nostalgic, it drives me nuts. I kind of picture Lily really liking it, in fact, I may have mentioned it in chapter 24, which I was working on.

I really really miss this story. I sometimes hate that I'm kind of a slow novel-writer, heheheh. There was just something really magical about writing it that was different than any other story. I think it was because their world was so tangible, that everything I did felt connected. And I chose to write it in a way that sounded like your friend was telling you what was happening to her. So it always just seemed like I had this friend that was doing the freakiest shit ever (in my opinion) and meeting this...this Phantom! And it's like... what's gonna happen next?!/what are you doing?!/who is this guy?! And I loved feedback from Raye. She said it was the kind of book that made you hate the Phantom, but in this infatuated attracted way which makes no sense at all and you just can't put it down. I really enjoyed her comments...

Yeah, I just was thinking about that. It's good tea.
I will try to shoot for late summer. But who knows. Tilly & Jo is gonna be a big thing if I actually go through with it.
