Still Here

Sorry, been absent for a bit, had some things going on.

I've started the initial revision phase - typos, incomplete sentences, etc. My betas deadline is this weekend, so I should have input from all of them and can delve into the depths of despair! Ha! Kidding.

I have the most recent issues of Writers Digest and The Writer, so next week I'll post some things on the blog from the magazines. Those are two great magazines with great info. If you don't subscribe, you should. Just saying . . .

how did you get your beta readers?

Janey - I've made friends with a few bloggers from a) following their blogs and b) them following my blogs. We've moved beyond Blogger to Facebook and gotten to know each other. So, when I needed beta readers, I sent messages to my writer friends. I also have a very good friend who is brutally honest about everything. She always gets to do a read through because I know she's not going to temper her comments. If my writing sucks, she's going to tell me it sucks. She's my rock.

why subscribe when you'll post the best bits here? saves me money and keeps me in touch w/ my pal Scott.

Tess - HA! There's also the fact that I intend to post, but never do post, so . . . if you subscribe, you get the benefit of all my intents to post! Ha!!

And, you're my friend on FB, so you get to keep in touch with me that way. Then again, I keep my writing, for the most part, off of FB, so . . .
