Thursday 13 – 13 Things On My Mind
1. When I type that phrase, “On My Mind,” I always thinks of David Eddings’ books. “Mind? Mind? Islena doesn’t have a mind!”
2. My upcoming writing conference that my writing group is hosting. It’s in two weeks! ~faints~
3. I finally updated my craft blog! I hadn’t touched the poor thing since February. I made a Spring Bag!
4. And a Camera Bag! I’m really proud of the camera bag, because I designed it myself!
5. I just posted Chapter 11 of New World Order on Taurus and Taurus. The story is fully plotted out into a three book arc, and we’ll keep this first trilogy on the public (free) blog.
6. I attended Spring Fling from Chicago North’s chapter of the RWA.
7. At the Spring Fling, I pitched Burning Bright to Managing Editor Lindsey Faber of Samhain Publishing.
8. She wants to see it! ~faints~
9. ~gets up~ She wants to see it! ~faints~
10. Pitching isn’t NEARLY as intimidating as I thought it was. ~faints again~
11. Fainting hurts if you miss the floor and hit the desk instead.
12. One does not die for pitching to an editor for the first time. Who knew?
13. I’M SENDING A MANUSCRIPT OF A FULL LENGTH NOVEL TO A PUBLISHER! FOR REALS!
~faints~
Congrats on pitching and your request! I don’t faint, I puke. You get bruises, I just lose weight. *wink*
I’m with Inez. I’m a puker.
But… CONGRATS!
Congrats on pitching, and good luck with the submission.
Congrats on the request!
Congrats! Now stop fainting before you do some damage – either to you or to the furniture! 😉
*smiles* Congratulations on making it through that pitch and getting the request! I wish you the best of luck. And I thank you for helping me with my nerves when we were there so I could stay conscious during mine!
Fantastic! I would probably faint and then throw up. I haven’t gotten the nerve to even meet anyone. I’m so excited for you about the writing conference, too!
Congrats on the request!
