February 28, 2007: That Was Fast...
It's already the end of February and I've yet to finish a few things I'd hoped to have done by now. I'm adapting my YA series into a TV pitch and its coming along with help from my writing partner Paula, but its not an easy task. I'm halfway through Patrick's book and hope to have it done soon so I can get his blurb to him. And, yes, I've cut down on the reading. It's time for me to focus though I'm in the middle of a great story in the New Yorker on origami. I promise, once I'm done with this it's not thing but work for me.
February 26, 2007: More Reading, Less Writing
I've received Patrick Sanchez's manuscript and am reading it. I'll save the blurb for Patrick, but suffice to say I'm really enjoying it. I've also plowed through several novels as well as kept up with all my periodical reading which has left limited time for writing. But I'm working on one project and waiting to hear from editors on a couple so the not writing part might change before I know it.
February 21, 2007: Here We Go Again...
Life Over Easy is on its way to the copy editor and I can look forward to getting a marked up copy soon. I never claimed to be an editor or even an English major so it's always slightly stomach churning to see just how bad my writing mechanics are. This is my second time around, so I know not to be too freaked out, take my time and go over each and every squiggle mark, no matter how much I'd rather look the other way.
Today is my last day as guest blogger over at LiteraryChicks. I had a great time and really sweated the first couple of entries. It's one thing to write for my own blog, but I had six very talented women to keep company with and I wanted to do my best. My heartfelt thanks to Eileen and Lani who did a lot of heavy lifting to make the whole thing so much easier for me.
