Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

I overhead one of our writing instructors talking about next year's Writer's Institute [link] that's held here, and she was talking about offering a YA workshop. I hope you don't mind, Amy and Barb, but I pimped your books out to her as coming from highly recommended YA authors.

“Not dead yet!”

Erm, no, I seriously, seriously don't mind. Especially since I have very fond thoughts of UW-Madison. (We used to go there every year when I was in drum corps. LOVE Madison.)

Because books.

Sure, that's great, Sail! Thanks.

So...

:deep breath:

I just pressed Send on my query letter with my writing resume and 2 writing samples in for a feature article in BUST.

Wish me -ma.

Oh, as usual, dear.

My first query to a print magazine. Do I get a toaster, or a Xanax or something?!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
