My course on writing speculative fiction began at the Alexandra Centre on Tuesday and will run for 10 weeks. I have 7 students and am very excited to be working with them. Our first stories for critique are already submitted!
Novel critique
Thanks to excellent friends and awesome writers, I got a fantastic critique of a novel that was rejected for submission (with an offer from the editor to look at it again). What I needed was another take on the 3 paragraph critique the editor sent me to clarify with fresh eyes the things she wanted me to change. Of course, I was also pleased to get fresh insights from my critiquers, as well. The result was a very clear and manageable set of suggestions that have completely energized me! Thanks to great writers and great friends!
Novel revisions!
Very much enjoy revising my novel. I know I have a ton of work to do, but it is always so rewarding because the work gets better!
My iPhone works!
Heather helped me get into my website from my iPhone. Yay!
I got a new iphone
I got a new iphone and I seem to be learning how to use it fairly easily. I did need help with a couple of things, but both seem to be working themselves out. Hopefully, it will allow me to do a bunch of things I would normally do on my computer when I am away from my computer. That would be nice!
