December 2nd


Hello all!


Yes, I'm proud. After a long month of writing I managed to write a 50,000 word novel in a month. I think this was one of the hardest years too. I am working part time now, I had a death in the family, and my computer crashed. All this and I was still able to make it! I know I have been neglecting my blog but I don't know if there is anyone who is actually reading it anyway.
Now it is December. We have the first layer of snow on the ground and I am finally starting to get the Christmas spirit. I will be cleaning the house and decorating this weekend as a matter of fact. I've bought one present so far but I plan to do a lot of shopping online this year in order to save myself from the crowds at the mall.
I am also hoping to send CHAIN REACTION out to another four or five agents sometime this week or early next week. The last time I did it I received my first rejection within a couple of hours, ah, the joys of email. I have decided that I am going to work on editing my nano novel instead of the one from last year. It is more parallel with ChAIN REACTION then the other one and if I actually did go somewhere with the first it would make a good second book. I also need to start writing some short stories so I can try to get my name out there somehow.
Well, cheers to the start of a holiday season and I swear I will be posting again very soon (less then a month? This one had a time span of less then a month) Patti
