Blog posts up at new blog...
I've posted a couple times at the new blog. The most recent is about what writers can learn from the books in their DNF piles. Pop on over and read it if you have the chance :D

My time here is at an end -- sort of
The new website and blog are up and running. So, I'm not posting my blog here anymore, but I will try to remember to post links when I post on the site.
For those who are interested, the actual site is www.jointheprt.com

Stereotyping: how to do it wrong
First a bit of news. The website is up, but the blog still needs a bit of tweaking (and I still need an image from one of my artist friends). What that means is my posting here on LJ is probably close to done since I'll be moving to the PRT blog instead. However, I'm still here today, and that's what really matters, right? So on to the post:

I'd rather be writing
About a month ago, my Twitter friend, Colin, wrote a fabulous blog post asking writers to talk about depression (http://maantren.blogspot.com/2009/03/writing-and-depression-kiwiburger.html if you are interested). I contributed, but the funny thing is I was in a pretty good place at the time. Pretty Souls was ready to start submitting, and I felt ( Read more... ) -
#agentfail... *le sigh*
I've been AWOL for a while again, but it seemed appropriate since my last post was on #queryfail that this one will discuss #agentfail.

Essentially, they devoted their day to posting snippets or general comments about the queries they read that day to show why the queries were rejected. Most left out anything that could be used by an outsider to pinpoint who the ( Read more... ) -
Customer Service in the 21st Century (aka NOW)
So, I've been debating for a while now whether to just keep posting about writing or to branch out. Today, I'm trying something new.
The economy is in the crapper. Most people know that, even if it hasn't hit them hard individually yet. My husband found out yesterday that everyone in his company has to take a week off in March unpaid (what that ( Read more... ) -
Okay, I think I'm ready
I have spent today working on the outline for the next book in my YA series. I have my new characters (at least the important ones) set up. I know their names (and I was smart enough this time to keep track of initials so I don't have new characters with the same first initials as existing characters - go me :P), what they look like, and a little ( Read more... )
