Let Me Tell You About April

Okay, this post is a little overdue. I couldn't post in April because I had the A to Z posts. Then I had to squeeze in two pre-scheduled book posts and the IWSG post. Since I only blog on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, that means this is the first chance I've had to really talk to you!



So I wanted to tell you a few things that were going on behind the scenes as I struggled to get around to all your blogs each day. April was a crazy, crazy month. I'm not sure how I survived.



First we started shopping for houses...



Then we put an offer on a house. If you've ever bought a house, you know what followed that...



Finally the mortgage company had our entire life history on file and it was time for closing.



The last week of A to Z, we were packing. We started moving on May 1st and the movers showed up on May 2nd. I had an author event here on May 2nd...



And all the while, I was working my "day job" as a freelance writer. April brought three major writing firsts. I got my first piece on Cosmopolitan.com...



My first piece on GoodHousekeeping.com...



And my first piece on xoJane.



Oh, and I finished my second round of revisions on my 2016 chapter book, Piper Morgan Joins the Circus, and turned them in two days before we moved.



So when everyone else says, "April is over, it's time to rest," I say, "April is over...time to get going on my next big challenge!

How was your April?
