Stop playing with my heart, you stinking house

What are they going to want next?  One of my kidneys?

Buying a house is way too difficult than it needs to be.  Every time we think we’re going to reach a point of smooth sailing, some storm blows in and here come the choppy waters.  There’s going to be SOME big decision to make, most likely one that’s going to cost us money and is associated with paperwork that requires us to sign our names no less than thirty times.

If we make it through this week, we just may get ourselves a house.

I’ve been absolutely slammed, but it feels good to work hard.  I’ve been handling the house stuff and writing more freelance articles than I ever thought I would, all the while still putting in quality rewriting work into Super Ted.  Every night I’m ready to pass out at eight o’clock, but it’s that good-tired feeling, similar to how I feel after a hard run.

Because it’s my goal to have Super Ted ready for the masses at the end of the month, I put together a query letter for the script and submitted it to Write On!’s June Query Letter Contest.  It was just announced this morning that my letter for Super Ted took third, which means while it needs some tweaking, perhaps it has a chance to catch the eye of whoever opens the mail at the production companies I’ll be hitting up.

Here is the announcement of the contest winners over at Write On!
