If I ever get married, I think I'll just elope.
Yesterday was my cousin's wedding, and I was one of the bridesmaids. I helped with the potluck dinner (my cousin and I made lasagnas), set up chairs and tables, decorated, participated in a dance, and did odd jobs leading up to the ceremony. Even for a simple wedding, there's so much work and almost no way to prevent the last minute stress that descends within the last 24-hours before the ceremony. As a member of the bridal party, it was my responsiblity to delegate that stress away from the bride and groom. By the end of it, I was exhausted.

The important thing, though, was that my cousin and his new wife had a good time and created memories for their new life together. Congratulations, Mitchell and Krystal.
Aside from the wedding, I also finished up an edit of The Changelings, Chapters 1-10. I managed to get the first third of my epic fantasy novel down to around 58,000 words, or roughly 220 pages. If I could keep up that pace, I might be able to clock in at less than 650 pages.
I also made cards.

As June begins, I'll have to work out a summer schedule. I have plans to do Camp Nano in July and I hope to take some day trips around So-Cal. But one of my major goals is to work to get The Changelings published by early next year. All that's to come. So stay tuned.
Enjoyed your report. Good luck with Camp NaNo!
