Thunderstorms and warnings of a possible tornado, persuaded me to shutdown my computer yesterday afternoon. Even though I have an ipad, I chose not to post. After a full day away from the computer, I decided to continue with the rest.
This past week was productive.
* I completed my last revision of “the Chestnut and the Bay” and will be submitting it this week. This was the NF book I wrote through “NF Archaelogy” (run by Kristen Fulton) and critiqued several times by her. During the last critique Friday, Kristen dubbed it ready.
*I am taking part in 2 online writing workshops – “Teachers Write” through Kate Messner and “Writing Summer school ” with the Nerdychicks. Love them both and so much great advice from both.
*I have also been reading and studying a lot of fiction and non-fiction picture books. (Check my posts on “It’s Monday. What are You Reading” for a look at just some of the books I have been reading)
*I have been working on a few of my other works as well, but not huge chunks of time. Have started a new story that I’m loving.
*Posted 2 posts last week – “It’s Monday…” and “Slice of Life Tuesday”
This week:
*I need to polish my story and my cover letter and then send to 4 agents.
*Read more picture books
*Work on my characters per “summer School” posts.
*spend longer blocks of time writing!
