Meet with Me on Thursday! We'll Talk Queries.

One of the most daunting parts of writing is actually querying and submitting your stories. It’s a bit frightening to look up strangers and ask them if they’d like to read your work, but it’s an integral part to the process that simply can’t be skipped.

In Which I Suggest That You Don’t Check Your Ego At The Door

But I’m still dealing with, and will be dealing with the fact that the other babies were lost.  While optimism is the name of the game, it’s unrealistic not to expect bad … Read More
