12 hours late, but finally getting posted….(and it’s because I was SLEEPING! yay me!)<\/p>\n
Gina Ranalli’s new book is out early! The cover freaks me out just a tad… okay, a lot. At least it’s not flying eyeballs this time. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
Sky Tongues<\/a><\/p>\n Congrats, Gina!<\/p>\n Louise received her box of The Black Act<\/a> this past week! The darling even did a little video (and moved it to youtube<\/a> for me, thank you sweetie!). <\/p>\n Super-fantastic writers, Marta Stephens, Aaron Paul Lazar, Kim Smith and S.W. Vaughn have collaborated on a blog – Murder by 4<\/a>. They just received news that the blog is now listed in Writer’s Digest Best 101 for Writers by Writers!<\/p>\n Congratulations all of you!<\/p>\n A totally hilarious post on the ongoing saga between queryfail and agentfail. <\/p>\n More here.<\/a><\/p>\n The tweet-lite thingy on facebook is as tweety as I plan on ever getting…<\/p>\n Joel Sutherland<\/a>, who – as it turns out – is really good at keeping a secret, made a gianthugeamazingwonderful announcement on his blog this past week. He’s got a book deal with Scholastic! Not only can the man write childrens and horror, now he’s aiming for the tween and YA markets, too. Congratulations, Joel!<\/p>\n Belle<\/a> has left the building – Facebook, that is. And in a stunningly astute commentary (that which I agree wholeheartedly) she states: Bravo, Belle!<\/p>\n Poppy Brite<\/a> has amazing stuff on her blog. Just go check out this past week’s posts… life moves on in Tanganyika. You’ll see what I mean when you get there. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n Editorial Anonymous<\/a> has a great post up about Self-Publishing and Self-Editing. <\/p>\n And Victoria Strauss at Writer Beware had this: The Need for Balance<\/a><\/p>\n These were timely, considering my recent thoughts on new projects, etc. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n And now, still, continuing on, repeatedly…<\/p>\n
