I haven't let myself have a milkshake in years, because they're insanely high in calories. But when I get these last two chapters done, I get to go get one.

Maybe I should try it. Might help me get on the ball more.<br /><br />And hey, congrats on being 2 chapters away from THE END. That's probably the best news from all of this!

What a cool reward to give yourself. You make a good point about rewarding yourself for rejections; I mean just as much effort went into those submission, so why not be rewarded for your effort. <br />I'm a little late, but so glad I made it. Seeing your link list has reminded me to get off my bottom and get in touch. <br />Thanks bunches for co-hosting this month.

Maybe that will be one of my Ten Rewards. I agree. I'm glad he sent out the email. He wasn't happy to be closing down, but none of them are. He's the first that contacted me directly out of three, though. I don't understand how she could not have news.
