Thanks!

A thank you goes out to Kirstin Cromm-Mills, author of the upcoming YA novel, The Sky Always Hears Me: And the Hills Don’t Mind. You can pre-order it on Amazon.com. Kirstin reviewed the first three chapters of my novel My Father’s Ghost and gave me a wonderful critique. I’ve made several changes, based on her questions and suggestions, and I know my novel is better for it. So a shout-out to you, Kirstin.

Also, happiness! An agent is interested in representing my novel Knucklebone. She said it grabbed her from the first paragraph and kept her reading. I will keep you posted.

I’ve submitted a mini-mystery to Woman’s World, a market I’ve been trying to break into for years. I’m also rewriting Deadly Waters and working on my latest novel, The Suicide of Natalie Greene. In case you’re asking, yes, I write every day. My goal is to write novels as a career, not a hobby. I’d love to attend book signings and someday be on the panel at a writer’s conference. I intend to write “how-to” articles for writing magazines. Oh, I have plans. Big plans. I am fully confident in pulling all this off, too. No matter how much chocolate I have to consume in order to have the energy to do it.
