I Won Fifty Bucks

The regulars in Deb’s blog know I won the September comments contest. Here’s a screenshot of the $50 Amazon GC:

I already have my order lined up and I went WAY over $50. Here are the books I’m considering:
Will Write for Shoes: How to Write a Chick Lit Novel - Cathy Yardley
The Elements of Style, Fourth […]

The Laray Carr Controversy: When Will It End?

To everyone who got stiffed by LCP, I suggest you head over V’s blog right now and see V’s latest post.
This whole situation’s gotten too hairy for my liking. I ALMOST wrote for them. But Hope Hunt’s “How many can you do by [72 hours]” response put me off. I would think a publication would […]

Third Day: Muse Online Conference

I totally missed the third day! I had only one real-time chat scheduled but I was so tired (as per usual) the alarm clock didn’t wake me up.
Later today, however, is the chat I CAN’T afford to miss. I’ve been waiting for the “How To Edit Your MG Novel” chat ever since the conference started. […]

Second Day: Muse Online Conference

…went a bit smoother than the first one.
I wasn’t able to attend Andrew Hook’s conference because I was just so tired yesterday, not even a plane crash could’ve woken me up. Cynthia Bryan, my 9pm conference “speaker” couldn’t make it, so organizer Lea Schizas took over and answered general questions. Basically, I strayed away from […]

After much […]

The Monday Blues

I can’t believe it’s Monday again. I got up from 15 hours of sleep a few hours ago and if I might say, I don’t exactly feel too good. My eyes are puffy, my back aches, and my head’s all empty. Before I get stoned for sleeping too much, let me just say I went […]
