Sometimes I get in a slump. You know the feeling–where you think nothing is going your way, your life is hard. My sister explains it as, “Life sucks and then you die.” I have those moments. I hate them. I don’t have a cure for getting out of them, but…
I love to get comments on my posts. It makes me happy. It makes me feel loved and all warm and fuzzy inside. So today, if you’ve read my post, leave a comment. You may think I have nefarious reasons for requesting this, but I don’t. I just like to…
Have you ever woke up grumpy? I hate doing that–and today was one of those days. I’m trying to work my way out of it. Writing helps. Exercise helps. But when you’re in one of those moods, it’s so much harder to get motivated! At least I’ve got four sweet kiddos…

The Princess Bride. The movie is on my top ten list, so why have I never read the book? Well, now am I. Can I just say–it’s awesome. So funny. Very different from what I’ve been reading lately but very entertaining.
No news this week but I did send out three more queries. I try not to think about it too much or I’ll get really anxious. One of the agents considering my novel posted her stats. She reads 36,000 queries a year, requests the first thirty pages of about 1,200,…
# of queries sent since I started querying: 27 # of requests: 2!!! Can you tell I’m happy about this? And just for fun, I want to post a snippet from my second book, FORGOTTEN. To get you up to speed, this scene takes place with my two main…
