Pretend last week is this week…

Hello, Write Edge readers! I’m asking, once again, humbly, for your forgiveness and patience. I was all set to post new content last week, and then one of my kiddos came down with a stomach bug. She’s all better now, but it was a long week of swapping out trash can bags and keeping her company as she fought to recover. Which meant I couldn’t get to my computer nearly as much as I would have liked.

I’m finally back, though, and ready to jump back into it!

First, this week’s new fiction. It’s a micro piece, so no preview here, but you can read it now on The Write Edge Writing Workshop!

Two weeks ago, I was fortunate enough to conduct another workshop for our local library. This time I talked about point of view and pacing and how to work with both to make your writing better. I’ll post the notes for those tomorrow on a new Notes on Tuesday.

I did get to do some reading last week, and I finished Jodi Picoult’s newest book, Mad Honey, that she co-wrote with author Jennifer Finney Boylan. Curious to know what I thought of it? Find out on Wednesday on The Write Edge Bookshelf!

And, finally, we’re back to Instagram. I’m tickled to be getting more book mail — my favorite kind — and will share it with you on Friday. Check out previous posts with my handle, @EktaRGarg, or on my Facebook author page.

Also, in book news, I’m in the formatting stage of my novel! Atmosphere Press is, once again, publishing my work, and I got to see the book in the next stage. It’s actually happening, and I can’t want to share more info as I get it!

In the meantime, take care of each other, readers, and perform an act of kindness for a stranger this week. Have a good one!

E.R.G.
