It arrived today!!!
My copy of Something from the Attic arrived today! It was an amazing feeling to hold a book in my hands and read one of my stories. I can't even imagine the thrill of those blessed with a book deal. I can't stop grinning over a short story!
Thank you so much, sis! I can not WAIT for Literary Foray to come out. It will be so amazing with the number of great authors and friends.
I figured it was about time I put a picture up. LOL My son asked the other day why I didn't have one and this is my most recent, just taken last month when we were having family pictures taken. *grimaces* I don't know about you, but I NEVER like pictures of me!
I'm so glad your WIP is progressing so well! I've added a word counter for my novel project to the BLOG here and hope that it will inspire me to dive back into it in a couple weeks when my commitments on WDC are finished. You are very inspiring!!
I am A 42 year old Scorpio from rural Indiana that loves to lose myself in the escape of the written word. We remember the characters that we laugh with, love with, and cry with. I thrive on making my reader FEEL.
In the last couple months of 2010 I had seven short stories accepted to anthologies,my first time in print, two more joined the published ranks in January 2011, and one since. I am super excited to be taking this first step towards my dreams. I am currently working on a novel.
"Your acting, or your writing, is not yours to judge. So saying "I'm not very good at this" is some sort of protective mechanism, and it will keep you from sharing it with people. You have to be willing to fearlessly expose yourself." ~Lee Tergesen~
Whoot! I got my copy a couple days ago. I love your story!! I hadn't read it in a while and it was great experiencing it again. Huge congrats!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove your new profile pic. I HAVE to change mine. My husband and kids keep reminding me I DON'T look like that anymore :P (LOL)
Have a great evening, sis!
