"This could be our last moment together. There's something I need to ask you. Did you cut my fuel line?"
Actress look alikes.

Yep.
So, I've been editing all day. My editor pointed out I use "was" too much. I didn't think it possible. Here is the proof.
It was Isidore's job to travel to London and scour the city until he found this Peter Jones, then take him to the Baron. It was a simple enough case and normally he wouldn't have taken it but the Baron was paying extremely well. Yet, now that he was here he was wondering if it was worth it.
[image error] This is for Clair, who loves Watson's Jumpers. (Kitty?)
That sentence is just bad without all the was. But, now you see what I'm up against. I'm now having to re-work many of the sentences, as in, all, to fix this problem. From what I've been able to understand, was is a pass adverb. (I'm sorry if I get this all wrong. I went to a class to learn all this, but no matter how much I learn it I forget it.) And I need to use present adverbs. Was usually directs the action to the thing instead of the person, I think.
In short, my poor brain looks like a fried egg and for the life of me I can't think of one single book review to do. So, you don't get one. Sorry, kind of. Part of me is sorry, the other part is asleep and wants a marshmallow.

This will be my brain for the next few...however long it takes until I'm done editing.
Until then you shall have to endure me. My long, random rants about nothing. My posting lots of pictures because while I'm thinking of new sentences I look up funny pictures. Now is a good time to start following me on Pintrest.
Who came up with that name?

So...sorry about the randomness, but at least this means the book is making its way closer to being published.
Tomorrow I think, if it is all right with Clair, I will share the rough ideas we have for the cover. For now though, I'm going to bed. Maybe after I finish a cool movie Clair told me about. And yes, I will be sharing this later. It is so cool it gets a review.
[image error] No wonder he's bad.
Quote is from the movie I plan to review. But for now...
ALLONS-Y!!!! And back to the editing!!!
