I am a published writer!

I'm so happy. Like, really happy. Like, really really really I-just-got-published happy.
I was going to my email to send links to my blogs to my parents, and I found an email from New Moon saying they had published a book review I wrote maybe 8 months ago in their blog!
This is my first publication by anyone besides my mother (lol), who used to edit a newsletter.
Anyway, here's a link. WHOOOOOOO!
Ha ha ha.

P.S.
Fame...fortune...bwahahaha.

Broke through my Second Writer's Block of the Month.

Yes, I had another bout of block, but I rammed it with a sledgehammer a few times and made a sizeable hole. I'm kind of meandering along, but I'm past where I need to be tomarrow, so I'm pretty pleased with myself. Doing a lot better than I did in NaNoWriMo last November.

Now, for your enjoyment, a few quotes from my script (all copyright me, of course!):

"We’re villains, and we love soybeans!"
"It’s page 17. Can we make a big exciting plot revelation now?"
"So I put the cucumbers in the swimming pool, and it was just lovely."

In the beginning....

There was Script Frenzy. And Screnzy created the script in 30 days. And on the first day, Screnzy said, 'Let there be sluglines!'
And there were sluglines. And they were good.

That's right. It started. This morning from 12:00 A.M. to 1:30 A.M. I typed madly, boulstering my wordcount up to 1506. It's exciting that I was able to get past where I need to be tomarrow in one midnight stint. But now I've kind of hit a writer's block. And I could be writing now instead of posting in my blog, but I don't know what to write!
The fact that it's actually June now seems incredible, after such long days of waiting. But I thought I had at least enough ideas to stretch it to page 2000. Maybe not?

Ah well. I'll pull through it. *sigh*
