April Newsletter 2022

Much Ado About AprilWords, words, words!

While Beta readers are hard at work with The Girl with the Uninvited Ghost, I spent March drafting the second book in the series, The Girl and the Clock Tower Murder (working title).

With the second book cooling, I’m participating in Camp NaNoWriMo for April and spending the month outlining the third Pandemonium Cozy Mystery with a goal of 20k words.

Woo! Let’s do this!

Wattpad Beta Available Girl with the Uninvited Ghost - April Newsletter The Girl with the Uninvited Ghost

Suppose you’d like to check out the Beta of The Girl with the Uninvited Ghost, head over to Wattpad, where I’m posting chapters weekly.

I’ve also decided to enter The Girl with the Uninvited Ghost in the Watty’s, Wattpad’s largest annual writing contest.

I am vying for a one-on-one writing mentorship with hundreds of other hopeful writers to get the book into shape. If accepted, I will spend May and June making The Girl with the Uninvited Ghost the best it can be.

The Cesar Egido Serrano Foundation Writing Contest

Last November, I entered the Cesar Egido Serrano Foundation’s annual writing contest along with 46,911 stories from 178 different countries.

Participants were asked to write 100-words on the theme of the preservice of humanity in the wake of the pandemic.

At the end of March, I received notice that my story made it to the 50 English language finalists!

You can imagine, I was over the moon with the news. Wish me luck in taking the whole thing, even though I am proud of myself for making it this far.
