The year of the Rabbit

Found the description below in an email today and as two in house are rabbits...


1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999

People born in the Year of the Rabbit are articulate, talented, and ambitious. They are virtuous, reserved, and have excellent taste. Rabbit people are admired, trusted, and are often financially lucky. They are fond of gossip but are tactful and generally kind. Rabbit people seldom lose their temper. They are clever at business and being conscientious, never back out of a contract. They would make good gamblers for they have the uncanny gift of choosing the right thing. However, they seldom gamble, as they are conservative and wise. They are most compatible with those born in the years of the Sheep, Pig, and Dog.



This rabbit has her head down editing...and it may well be down for a while. However must leave you with a few links... 


The first from Sarah Duncan here. This has helped me on so many levels but the biggest is being overwhelmed by finding things in a 440 page pile (you know when you need to go a check your facts and debate moving a scene...you either have to scroll endlessly or flip through pages and pages...Sarah suggests printing out the script single spaced and voilà half the size and less intimidating) There is much more in the post and the comments are helpful too. 


The next is also a useful editing tool if you've done it in the first place, which unfortunately I haven't but I will in the future...time lines. Sue Moorcroft's post is excellent on the use of them and it has pictures :-) here

I'm a dog. (That never sounds good but it works for me. LOL)

Happy Year of the Rabbit, Liz. I hope it's a good one for you. =o)

I am also a Rabbit when not being a sheep. Must ascertain what the OH is in case of conflict, although it's probably a bit late now!!!
