Down Time

Yeah, I know. I haven't posted in a while. So here's an update.

I have my 10 readers all lined up and now they all have the manuscript too. Easter, Amanda, Janet, Caitlin, Jessica, Emily, Jenn, Tracy, Liz, and Britt--you all rock! So now instead of twiddling my thumbs until I hear the feedback...I've started writing something else. I forgot how difficult it is to start a new novel. I'm trying my hand at historical fiction, which is kind of strange since I absolutely HATED history class in school. I'm trying to write something about famous 16th century Irish Pirate Queen Grace O'Malley and her daughter Margaret. It's slow going right now and I've only written about two pages (and outlined about five chapters), but I'm trying. At least it's keeping me entertained for a while.

  1. It's great that you're being productive and working on something else. I need to do that more as I tend to obssess about one project and not do anything else until that is complete.

    Good for you!
