Heh. My horoscope for the month:
Do you aspire to publish your work in book or magazine form? This same full moon, May 23, just might give you the break you need. It would be worthwhile to send a query letter to the publication you are interested in early in the month, because the full moon will bring closure to this question. It's one of your best moments of the year to find out if you have what it takes to get published.
Wow, Allyson.
I better get crackin' on the rest.
I'm taking time off at the end of the month to hopefully get it mostly done and out for editing.
Whew!
It's almost real!
Allyson, that sounds like a mandate, if I've ever heard one. Better do it.
Aimee, you should be in here, all the time.
Thanks, Cindy. I am usually in lurker mode in here cause, well, still a little shy. :)
still a little shy. :)
Who are you and what have you done with Aimee?
Hee, just kidding. I felt the same way when I first started posting here, which I think was only about 3 months ago. It didn't take me very long to realize that being in here only makes my writing better. There's so much experience here to draw from when you need help. And I don't think you need a whole heck of a lot of help. Your drabbles have been exquisite.
Thank you, Sail. One day, I mightn't feel so intimidated (for lack of a better word) and post a bit of my novel in here.
I only re-started writing a bit ago and the drabbles are wonderful for me (Thanks, Steph).
Writing is good. Writing is our friend. Or, anyway, it's sure as hell my friend - it keeps me sane.
I am nodding like a fiend over Sail's, but jumping up and down over Allyson's horoscope, because, well, yes.
Aimee, you have a novel? What's it about?
I'm in, um, three critique groups now. I feel like they're all useful, because they're all providing a different type of support and feedback, but if I start making noises about joining another, someone thwap me upside the head, because my days are running out of hours.
Heh. Susan, mine's been on hiatus, because I host them and there was first the thing with the floors, and then two of our group went out and had babies.
