When You’re Dead – Get Up And Do A Thriller Revival Performance.

Dear Friends, Family, Readers and People I Wish Would Read My Book,

Some people say,  “When you’re dead – lie down.”

I say, “When you’re dead – get up and do a Thriller revival performance.”

Last week, my publisher told me that they thought I could do better with my second manuscript. They said it felt rushed and lacked a real idea. As much as I’d like to have believed they were too busy smoking opium while conducting hermit crab races to appreciate a new piece of Gen Y literature, I had to accept that they were right. It was rushed and lacked any chutzpah. (Probably due to the fact that I was super sick and pregnant when I wrote it/ raising a toddler while living in a contruction zone with no kitchen.) For about a nano-second I thought that I should throw in the writing towel, embrace my role as a housewife/ mother and just enjoy my family. But then I was like, “Oh hell no, Sister. You love writing and love being creative and ain’t no bad review gonna hold you down.”

I immediately took action. I made a vision board. Hired a life coach and decided to do things that make me super happy and will help me find the clarity and peace to write the best book ever. I’m going to take that no good terrible manuscript and put a bad ass red leather jacket on it. But that takes time. I like to think that I’m in the Jackson 5 stage right now. I have months of physical and mental maturing ahead of me. Please bear with me while I discover the meaning of life and learn whatever it is that I want to share with the world.

Oh and watch my new Vlog – Confessions of Another Blonde on the Internet.
