Talk about being insecure. Well, this IWSG post is the most insecure one I've ever done, but I wanted to test out something, and what better place than here among friends? That's what I kept telling myself. Anyway, in spite of my good common sense, I'm posting my idea this month. What you'll see is a work in progress with a rough draft of my first Instant Book. If you have some suggestions about how to use this as marketing tool or (Heaven Help Me!) how to create a video, I'd to hear them.





In terms of your writing career, where do you see yourself five years from now, and what’s your plan to get there?
Actually, in five years I hope to see two of my completed young adult novels published. To that end, last year I knuckled down and found an agent, Italia Gandolfo, then I sent her the two books. Now, of course, I'm waiting. But while I'm waiting, I'm finishing up my Alligators Overhead/Great Time Lock Disaster trilogy. So within that five years, I'd like to see these middle grade novels out as a package. That's the plan. Fingers crossed.
