Top Ten Excuses for My Next Book Being Late

GloamingPowder understands.

1. Oh, midnight your time. I thought you meant the deadline was midnight my time...
2. My printer ran out of ink. (Ignore the fact that all my mss are emailed nowadays.)
3. My semester's final essay was due at the same time. (Ain't no way I'm risking failure at school, especially when I'm paying them.)
4. The hospital had no wifi, so I couldn't email it to you.
5. Oh, I've got until Friday... what do you mean, Friday was yesterday?
6. Teething baby.
7. Severe Tropical Cyclone Pam.
8. I gave up deadlines for Lent.
9. Stupid #%$*! story's not coming together!
10. Zzzzz.... Zzzzzz.... Zzzzzz....
