Today, I am speaking at the Calgary Public Library on Editing 101. I’m told that the session is full–should be a lot of fun.
Also, Finished editing my novel, based on comments from my critique group. Into the final pass before re-submitting.
I am nominated for an Aurora Award!
So thrilled! My short story, “The Gift,” in the Urban Green Man, is nominated for the 2014 Aurora Award for best short story! Happy Dance! Thanks to everyone who nominated me!
A productive week and SFWA secretary
Tons of work done at the write-off, and momentum all week. The novel is really shaping up! Also, I was notified this week that I was re-elected secretary for SFWA for another year. Yay!
The Write-Off!
Just finished day 1 of my writer’s group’s semi-annual writing retreat: the Write-Off! Spring is our long weekend (4-day) retreat, and I got about a chapter revised in my novel. Three more days to go!
And, two more…
Well, okay, wrote a second short story and chapter one of a new novel. So, it is nice to feel productive and get projects “finished” (both are just drafts), but what I am REALLY looking forward to is getting back to my novel–which I can do today!
