Just a few bibs and bobs - first off, I’d like to say congratulations to Cathy in California, who is the winner of my Valentine Blog Hop giveaway. She’ll receive a $25 Amazon gift card and a print copy of
Heart of Gold. If you’d still like a chance at a free copy of the book, go on over to Joanne Renaud’s blog and comment on
my interview there before midnight, February 16. Also, I’m happy to say that Heart of Gold is now available in the iTunes store for immediate download to your favorite iThing.
On the writing front, I’m making great headway with the first draft of my Heart of Gold sequel/tie-in, Taming the Earl, thanks in no small part to the
Pomodoro Technique. I tend to be the world’s worst procrastinator when it comes to getting my butt in the seat and actually writing, but I downloaded a Pomodoro app for my MacBook, and voilà! instant productivity. I urge all you procrastinators out there to give it a try. I have to say hearing that little ticking noise in the background just makes the words start flowing. At this rate I should be finished with my first draft in the next couple of weeks, which keeps me on track for a mid- to late March release.
That’s all for now…that little Pomodoro only gave me a 15-minute break!
