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.....
