Where has the writer been?
I’ve been woefully absent from this blog lately. It’s like the A-Z Challenge didn’t teach me a thing! But for once I can actually say it’s not because I’m being lazy but because I’ve been doing SO much work writing-wise. Currently I’m:
– Trying to finish editing a book I have to turn in to my editor by July 1st. Only a few more chapters! I finished the intense editing/rewriting in April but I wanted to let it sit for a month so I could look at it with fresh eyes and comb through it again during June. I should finally be through it this weekend.
– Writing a book. A completely different book in a different series–yes, at the same time!
– Keeping up with promotional stuff for all the works I already have out.
On top of this, I actually have a day job (and I TRY to have a social life). I’m going to Las Vegas for my 40th birthday in July so I’m trying to be a good little worker bee until then–so I won’t feel guilty about doing nothing for an entire weekend.
But hard work does pay off. This morning I got an email offering me a contract for a novella! I’ll give more details as soon as the ink is on paper.
So that’s why I’m a neglectful blog writer. How is your writing life?
You spelled this word wrong. We’re gonna have to rewrite the whole thing.
