WIP it! Into Shape. Moving Forward. WIP it Good.

So I got a domain name (joulesevans.com) and made a web site for my work in progress, Shaken, Not Stirred... a Chemo Cocktail. Here's what the home page looks like:
I made it on my MacBook Pro with iWeb. iHeart iWeb.

Like my manuscript, my web site is also a W.I.P. I've yet to figure out how to "drag and drop" my blog into it. And I don't do html. So right now this blog and my web site are at an impasse. Also, it would really like Facebook and Twitter buttons since it's getting cold outside. But I don't know how to sew. And there is other stuff I hope to do with my web site in progress, but I think we've discussed my shortcomings enough.

Plus, Mad Men is almost on so I'm kinda in a hurry.

A quick update on my manuscript:
So far I have about 20,000 words. A prologue and 18 chapters.

Chapter 19 will begin "The Chemo Cocktail" part of the book. Even though it is not quite half-way word count wise, it feels like it is the half-way part of the manuscript.

I'm having the time of my life writing! It's really not even fair. We'll see if anything comes of it. But come what may I'm riding this one with my hands raised to the sky! Wheeeeeeee!!

(So whatcha think of my web site in progress?)

p.s. I also made a sock monkey postcards web site here.
