A.D's Statistics

[Wendy]

I've finished one YA novel about a farm girl who lives on the reservation and has to run things alone while trying to deal with the threat that took out her father.

My second is Firebug, one about arson and the destruction is brings on the Res here each year.

I have 2 short stories that will be in the e-book Menage-20 that will be coming out in a month or so. I'll post you a link so you can see that when it's available.

I'm still learning the ropes mostly, but I'm having great fun doing it.

You seem to have a good dose of experience under your belt. Your profile says you've been writing quite a while, eh?

[A.D.]

Yes, I have been at it for a while. Creating a story is always the most enjoyable part of writing. I am now moving into a new phase which I call shameless out-flow. I need to expand my reaching markets, agents and other publishing outlets. The writing progression is ever changing. Currently I have completed my three newsletters and have stuffed some 260 envelopes with another 50 e-mails to go. Its an annual project, and perhaps the less enjoyable activities, but it is writing and out-flow.
I have not written anything the first three days of December due to this stuffing business, and I don't mean a turkey either.
Oh, well back on track soon.
Thanks for communnicating and sharing

Anytime AD. Good luck with having some nibbles on your lines!

Howdy AD, If you're in the mood for a free and fun read, you might like this Menage-a-20 book that we just finished.

If you like tales with a hook, here is 30 fun/scary/romantic/thought-provoking stories that are perfect for you.

My 2 shorts are called "Letting Go" and "The Foundation" and you can find them towards the back of the book. All of us helped with the 30th tale as a great big joint writing project, and all of our pictures can be seen on the author's cover art link.

You might recognise a few of the other authors as well: our very own Renee, Gwen, Paul, Rita, Henry..

Sound interesting. My Positive Spin newsletter is downloaded to one of my blogs at: http://positivepr.livejournal.com. The blog is called Writer's write and has both science fiction conventions, writing related articles as well as what projects I have worked on and plan to work on.
Dec. 11, 2009 750 words, 3 pages..

Boy has it been tough to get back to writing this month. I usually write first then do all the other tasks afterwards, but since I have been marketing and out-flowing, my witing time has suffered.
I am launching a new column for the newspaper market called: "The Family Tree: From Branches to Roots". It seems each year I earn more money from genealogy than any other writing subject.
December 18, 2009 1,000 words or 4 pages. Got to do better. Have a great holiday!

I have a presentation to a local genealogical society called DNA and the Family Tree. Got so much data, I can write an article.

[A.D.]

Well, I am a bit confused by all the changes. I guess I can keep stats in my computer. As of Jan. 22, 2010 I have been writing mostly genealogy articles, submitted 2 but have 3-4 more on the way. 14 pages, 3,250 words so far for this month.
