In which I am flinging links

I'm in the very last stages of revisions, and it's a demanding process--entirely by my own choosing, you understand. I divide the manuscript into 100-page sections and each day I read one section, note the changes I want to make, flag the pages, and input the changes. (I average 85 pages flagged out of 100 because this is when I'm making lots of subtle changes--for example, I might find that I've used a word twice within too short a passage and need to rephrase.) It is the finicky stuff which means I have to be extremely focused and detail-oriented, challenging for me because I tend to skim when I read. BUT, the little pop-up timer on the belly of this book is just about to blow and I am beyond excited to send it off at the end of this week. Unfortunately, it means that bloggery will be a bit hasty.

Today I am simply going to fling some links at you I think you might like. Enjoy!

Awww, the Joe Boxer dancing guy! My mum used to joke that if college didn't work out, I could always be the next Joe Boxer underwear girl...
