A wild ride

Wow! What a few wild weeks. It’s been a bit crazy. I’ve been crazy (it’s called having a thyroid disorder!) But I am back into it and writing up a storm (or revisioning up a ???)

To bring you up to speed on my news:

  • I attended my first RWA Annual Conference in Melbourne (a 1920’s theme). I was able to put faces to names who have, to date, been nothing more than an email addy. Read more
  • I met my agent for the first time too, although we had one of those “one of us shoud have worn a pink carnation” moments in the hotel lobby. But I pretty-much picked her and she was lovely and motivating and inspring.
  • I collected my 3rd place award for the Little Gems Short Story Contest and saw my words in print in the anthology (as well as finding myself on the organising committe for the 2012 RWA conference. Note to self: stop saying ‘yes’.
  • I came home to to a full-page article on my ‘other’ life – my dog-friendly B&B in Coffs Harbour. The reviewer called me ‘schoolmarmish’ because I like to write signs. Humph! But all publicity is good publicity. It’s still a great review .

Okay, back to my manuscript. I have 30 days to polish both of them – starting…NOW.

  1. School-marmish huh? Guess he/she didn’t see you looking hip and swinging at the Friday night cocktail party 🙂

    As you say all publicity is good publicity.

    Good luck with the polishing.
