No no no

I've been in a slump and haven't written much.  But what I've sent out keeps coming back.  Ouch

I wrote a story

Writing is a luxury these days, but I finished one of those 60+ works stacked by my writing desk.

Struggled because I DID NOT want to edit some of the stuff I wrote because sometimes I'm so in love with my own words.  But you have to "kill your darlings" to have a strong piece and now I do. 

Sent if out.

Now, to finish another story. . . 

Had an opportunity to read for Black History Month.  Such great fun. 

A new year!

Time to write new stories.

National Novel Writing Month

Yep, I'm going to attempt a novel in a month.

Got to day 15 one year.

Day one, another. (Ha)

This is the panel I will be on at the Montana Book Festival

I'm going to be a writer groupie at the book festival

Going through the list of writers that are going to be at the Montana Book Festival.  Names I recognize and admire--

The dream is to come back with lots of autographed books!
