So…..my editor at MIRA emails me yesterday and tells me that RT Book Reviews, the biggest romance review publication there is, chose to do a review of PUSH for their online publication. AND, they gave it their highest rating – 4.5 stars! In fact, they loved it so much that they asked to publish an […]

PUSH – the 30 day countdown

0

Comments

Today marks one month until PUSH hits the streets. I’ve been busy… …getting my social media ducks in a row (read: learning how the hell to use HootSuite). …hunting down bloggers and requesting reviews (which could easily be compared to hunting down an agent, albeit with an only slightly reduced level of “rejection fear”). …setting […]

Debut Author Waiting Games

Comments

The waiting game has begun. Now that PUSH has been fully copyedited by the folks at MIRA and sent off to be formatted, I’m left wondering if May 1st will ever arrive. Not that I’m twiddling my thumbs or anything. Quite the opposite, actually. I have more non-fiction assignments than I can handle, and I’m […]

I’m going to a writer’s conference tomorrow. From 9am until 4pm, I’ll be in a room with a hundred other authors learning how to do all the stuff I talked about in last week’s post – querying, agent shopping, manuscript editing, self-marketing, etc. Admittedly, I’m a little nervous. Why, you ask? Why would I be […]

After you type “THE END”

Comments

This writing thing is hard. No, change that. This writing thing isn’t hard; it’s all the stuff that comes after the writing that’s hard. First there’s agent wooing (If you’ve ever written a query letter, you know what I’m talking about. Writing those things will suck your brain out.) Then there’s rough manuscript editing (aka […]

In red and ALL CAPS

It is done. Monday was the auspicious day. I gave the manuscript one final read-through over the weekend and sent it off to my editor at MIRA Monday afternoon. I’m both relieved and anxious. No surprise there. I have to say, however, that the whole revision process wasn’t as difficult as I thought it would […]
