Publishing is NOT Dead Yet!

And how do I know? Because several of my unpublished friends have received contracts in the last TWO to THREE months! Let me count, Ronie, Myra, Christa, and I know I’m forgetting one or two others, but that gives me hope. What also gives me hope is my agent who’s working for me and said…

ICRS Day Two: Tuesday

I can hardly recall what happened Tuesday, but I’ll try! I showed up early so I could get out on the floor and check out all the booths. But the floor didn’t open until 9:30 and I had a 10:00. Yesterday I was only out on the floor for 45 minutes, but at least got…

ICRS recap: Saturday through Monday!

I survived all my interviews and only missed meeting with a couple of writers! Everything is blurring together but I’ll try to get as much down as I can. Saturday I had a great meeting with one of the agents interested in my WIP. You can read all about it here. Later that night I…
