Pausing for this commercial break
I suck at updating my blog. I always mean to keep up with it, but Real Life keeps me running so hard, it's hard to stop for that breather and update.
Anyhoo, I'll have an interview up tomorrow evening with the fabulous artist, Nathie Block. She is the first in a set of interviews I'm doing with artists whose stuff I love and who've done illustrations for me. I always find it fascinating to hear about the artistic process. I couldn't draw a stick figure if the fate of the world depended on it, so I'm envious and admiring of those who can words and ideas to vivid life on canvas (whatever the canvas format).
Until then, I leave you with a great blog entry from the Urban Fantasy and Young Adult author, Rachel Vincent. She gives a nice bullet point list of what an author controls in readying a book for the marketplace (uhm, almost zilch). Take a look-see. It's an interesting read.
