Show and Tell

Jump to Comments

K, I’m going to be brutally honest here.  We’re involving ourselves in this exercise today because I have nothing else to write about.  But here it goes.  How’s your goals list looking this year.  This is a show and tell.  I’ll show you mine but you have to show me yours.  I’m not very good with making goals.  I’m a pantzer in every area of my life.  But I did make a couple of goals for the year.  I wanted to try and branch out a little.  So I wrote a humorous shifter story for Samhain’s Tickle My Fantasy anthology.  I don’t know if they’ll be interested but at least I wrote it.  I wrote a Presents last year at the end of the year.  (It was amazing how motivated I was after I saw those dollar signs) and I made a goal of at least getting a request.

I got a request for the full with a three page personalized letter about changes I needed to make for them to want to publish it.  I’m all over that.  It took me a few days to come up with a new idea to replace the plot point she didn’t like but I think I have one and I have until the end of June to get it back to her.

I had a goal of getting Awaken the Devil out to more people.  It’s been at the same major NY publisher for over a year.  I’ve decided nothing is going to happen there.  But it finalled in the Connecticut RWA’s CONNections contest in the romantic suspense/mystery division.  So it went to an editor over at Dorchester so at least someone else is forced to look at it.  Maybe I will get a request.

So how’s your year looking so far?  Getting any closer to living the dream?  Trying some new things?  What’s going on in your world?
