Writing And Reading

Slowly but surely I'm getting my writing information moved from my work computer to this brand new, shiny, beautiful computer at home. *smiles stupidly* I've got to get to work on my revision and I've started a new story. My friend in the UK has read the first chapter of my new project and she likes it so far. It's really rough, I just wrote it this afternoon, but she thinks there's a good story there. We'll see. It's my first attempt at writing in first person and it feels really odd. I sent my revised first chapter to my critique buddy and an old friend who read the first version of it. My critique buddy has already read it and sent me some comments. I haven't had a chance to look at them yet but the ones he sent me from the first version were quite helpful. I'm sure these will be as well. I have some reading to do for another writer first, though. She sent me her entire manuscript and I'm only half way through. It will be interesting to see how her story winds up. Right now her character is in some deep shit with no seeming way out. I think I've let her hanging long enough. The poor girl must be really tired by now. Ciao.
