So it's been a long time since I've updated this blog, and a lot has happened in my writing world. Granted I'm still not published, but that's alright. I'm almost done with Something's Missing, I just have to type up the last few chapters and then Brandon is going to finish editing it. There are a few concepts that I want to keep, but I'm not too sure of, and there are others the might have to go away. Either way there's at least one more rewrite that needs to be done before I send off queries for it. At first I wasn't alright with this, but then I realized that it needed to be done. Better done properly and get published, than done in a rush and not be published. Right? So that's where I'm at novel wise.
Then there is the short short story that I wrote, many of you know of it as the Fairy Story, it has gone out under a different title. I have submitted it three times, and have gotten three rejections, but one of them had feed back. I see that alone as progress. I have plans to work the original short short into an actual short story (We're looking at adding about 2,000 or so words to it).
There is just something so refreshing about going back to school that helps with ideas. Even though I'm exhausted from working nearly full time, and going to school full time, I find myself thinking of different ideas. I have great ideas that are slowly coming into shape and are hiding away in composition notebooks. They are far from seeing the light of the computer, but it is nice to get them down. It is when I am working on these secret projects, that I realize I will never be able to stop writing.
