Note to self...

In the future, don't edit the intimate scenes at public coffeeshops!

Yesterday I spent a few of my holiday hours working on the novel revisions. Somehow I didn't realize just what chapter I was on, until I was stuck there, peeking over my shoulder every five seconds to make sure know one could read my writing! So embarrassing. Although, it did increase my editing speed immensely! *giggles*

Do you ever find yourself looking over your shoulder when you read or write romantic scenes?

  1. OH NO! I've not done that but I've cried over a scene in Starbucks. That was quite embarrassing.

  3. JJ, ah man, I thought I replied to your first comment. Sorry!
    That would be embarrassing too. Must be a good scene though if it brought you to tears! :)

    Thanks for the award! I'm off to check it out. xx

  4. I've never written in a public space so have never had this problem!

    I haven't visited for a while and was SURE you would have some submission news by now...you must almost be ready???? :)

    (and I love that pretty blue fleece your husband bought you a while back!)

  5. Ah, Rebecca, you caught me out! *cringes* I haven't started submitting yet. I have written my query letter (yay!), but I'm finishing a few last revisions on the novel before I submit. Perfectionist to the end, but so nearly there. ;)

    No coffeeshop writing for you?
    And thanks, I do love my new fleece!

  6. Romance? What would I know about that? - I'm a man.
    Thanks for an interesting, insightful, and amusing post.

    All the best, Boonsong
