Am I a happy girl?

Am I a happy girl?Hell, yes! Yesterday, I picked up a copy of the BBC’s Sherlock DVD from my local store.

When the modern day take of Sherlock Homes (not the Robert Downey Jnr. version) originally came on telly, I wasn’t quite sure I’d like it. By the end of the first episode I was kicking myself for not recording so I could watch it again. I’m suffering some serious geek love here. Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman are so good together. Sherlock is odd and brilliant. Dr Watson is the perfect ex-military sidekick. Yes, I am a happy girl. I cannot wait to see what happens in the series next year. Here’s a snippet from the first episode, A Study in Pink.

Hamilton Island

If I tell you where I am will you be mad at me? My American friends, currently snuggled in everything warm, probably would be. But I’m not there yet… that’s next week. Hamilton Island look out – the Boyd’s are on the way.

To say I’m too excited to write is an understatement. I had this same problem at Christmas and I think its because I know I won’t be writing tomorrow, or for a few days after that. Hmm, am I turning into a routine bound person? Apparently, the answer is yes!

It’s been a hell of a week for me. The Lady Scribes blog is going so well and we launched our Crit Friday blog for Opening Paragraphs yesterday. Go on over to check out the offering because I think we might still have a few spaces left.

New word count has been low this week but I got some great critique feedback on my second novel and I’ve been working on incorporating those suggestions. Have I told you those gals are the best? I probably don’t tell them enough.

I finished up the week by doing a desk clean while watching Torchwood tonight … I even labelled stuff! Now I just have to remember to pay the bills I unearthed.

Have a great week and I’ll catch you in two!

Man Monday … Mark Ruffalo

 

When you need inspiration for a dark, brooding lover, you can’t go past Mark Ruffalo. Lover in Waiting has a sub-plot involving Jack’s twin sister, Virginia,  and a suitor of her own. Meet the inspiration of my scholar, Bernard Hallam. Like him?

“Why Lady Orkney, I had no idea you took such an interest in my figure. I am flattered. Perhaps you should take care of these little matters for me since I am clearly incapable. You can even help remove my … boots later if you like. Such capable hands and such a generous … heart.”

Scrambled links…

It’s been a busy week on the web. So much to read, so much to write and edit but here’s the best web posts I found.
