Holy Crap!
What have I been doing??
Oh, that's right -- mothering, wife-ing, daughter-in-law-ing, editing, sleeping, newsletter-ing, reading (I finished Savannah Breeze on Tuesday), e-mailing...
You'll notice writing isn't on the list. That's okay -- I'm in a bit of a writing funk right now. I plan to get back into the swing of things after Memorial Day. Hopefully, my muse can stock pile some plots and/or plot advancements over the next week. Useful plots, I mean, not potential fanfiction for Prison Break. (I love me some Prison Break! And the cliffhanger is torture to my wee little brain! It's almost like Farscape, Season 3...or X-Men 2 when Jean Gray was swallowed by the lake. I had nightmares of Logan screaming her name for at least a month! It's hard to ignore Hugh Jackman, people!!)
Anyway, I have several authors with upcoming releases who now have blogs: Dayna Hart (YOU AGAIN with Freya's Bower), Cassandra Kane (SAY MY NAME), Wylie Kinson BELLA FIORE), and Anna Parrish (SINS OF THE DREAMER) -- all with Chippewa Publishing. Chippewa also has a new author blog: Rebeling In Romance!
I am so glad it's Friday -- my bosses are out of town, the sun is shining, it's actually spring-like here, and I'm leaving work early! Wahoo!! Have a great weekend, y'all!!

Happy Anniversary to Me!
On the first Monday of May, I began my writer-ly journey - my official journey, as in "Hey! I wanna be published!" Someone turned on the lightbulb, my friends!
Last year, I was working on a project I had originally written as a play during my undergrad days. Needless to say, I'm not finished with it. I will be but it ain't done yet. I've discovered that re-writing is my least favorite part of writing. Which is why I put it away. It's still there...brewing...
Also last year, I started writing a chick lit-ish contest entry. Sadly, this potential manuscript died on the vine last month. At least I know enough now to not try to edit and rewrite the damn thing to death, but it's still sad when you can't continue on a project.
If I remember correctly, my goal was to finish something. I did! And guess what? I freaking sold it!! Then I did it again!!!
My goals remain pretty much the same as the last year: write, revise, submit
Maybe next year, I can work on landing that dream agent.....
