It's almost three o'clock in the afternoon and I've just sit down at my computer. I'm not sure where the day went, but needless to say, I'm at zero words. I sure hope this isn't an omen of my writing endeavors in 2009.
I also decided to work on the spec book. Thanks for everyone who offered an opinion.
Okay, time to write. Just as soon as I grab some chocolate!! I'll post my word count once there's actually something to post.

Hope it goes well!
I'm glad to hear you're working on the spec book. And no worries. You still have time to write today. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
I'm sure you'll do fine. Hard to start on a holiday. Always something going on.
Hope you enjoyed your chocolate!
It's always good to start with chocalate.
Yummy. :)
I know once you put words on paper, your word count will grow.
I know that once you get started you'll be a word demon! Glad you started on the spec book - it sounds great!
Well, the spec book is sounding a lot like a HR right now. But the words are flowing and that's all that matters.
And thanks everyone for the support!
