My Writing Update
Jun. 8th, 2011 10:09 amSo, what's going on with my writing career?
1- I'm still revising The Scarlet Queen (my mid-grade fantasy novel with a little girl protagonist with severe disabilities and a weird, mythic America). I'm 2/3 of the way through the revision. It doesn't suck. I should be able to pass it to
rarelylynne before the end of the month.
After she looks at it and I perform another round of tweaks, it's off to my beta readers. :-)
2- I have 4 short stories out on the market. I have high hopes for two of them. The other two are running out of pro/semi-pro markets.
3- As I mentioned in my brief WisCon wrap-up, I had the opportunity to hang with my peers during the con. Once again, I can't stress how important it was to talk to people going through the same struggles. It really reenergized me. I feel better knowing that I'm not walking this path completely alone.
4- I have a handshake deal for a possible SEKRIT Project. I can't go into details about that for awhile. I've had a few of these fall through before, but I think this one will happen.
5- A new novel is percolating in the back of my mind.
