I guess I was on the Today Show again yesterday, although it’s just recycled footage from January

The producer of the “Unplugged” Today Show segment admits that she might have a problem, too.

Hyperdrive

10 Feb 2008 In: Book

Things have gotten unexpectedly insane in these parts. This Friday weekend I’m flying to New York. Next Tuesday (Feb. 19th) Wednesday (2/20) I’m scheduled to appear on the Today Show, first in a taped segment about that SoulTech workshop I went to last month, then in a live segment (!?) about how 52 Nights Unplugged is going. I’m guessing the structure of the piece will be something like this, but I won’t start crying. Promise.

In preparation for all this, I’m also getting a book pitch together in record time. My book proposal for Offbeat Bride took me months. This pitch is being cranked out in five days, and it’s actually almost a relief because there’s no time to second guess myself. There’s no time to question if this particular book structure is best because, well, this is the only one I’ve got time to think through. Changes can happen later, but for now it’s just straight through to get it done efficiently.

And what’s REALLY awesome is that the very nature of this project is helping me better focus on the project itself. That’s a nice bonus.

Anyway, this is all to say that updates here may be spotty over the next 10 days or so as things shift into hyperdrive. I’m so glad I got in my hibernating while I had the chance …

Hey there. I'm Ariel Meadow Stallings, a native Seattleite who's written my way up and down the Left Coast. Electrolicious is where I post daily randomata, but I also write for a living. My first book, Offbeat Bride, was published last year.
