Friday Ramblings From An Author-Edits and More

If you’re taking part in NaNoWriMo, I hope it’s been a productive first six days for you.

Remember Sally Bridgewater who I mentioned a couple of weeks ago? She’s not only taking part in the year’s NaNoWriMo but tomorrow…drum roll please, she’s going to attempt to write 50,000 words in one day. Hats off to her and I hope you’ll join me in wishing her success at such a task.

Here are a couple of links you might want to click on-

One is a livestream where you’ll be able to watch Sally as she writes and the other one is her fundraising page. She’s doing this not only to get her book finished but to raise money for a NaNoWriMo charity as well-

Good luck Sally!

This week I’ve been doing a little of everything. I did my first round of edits on both my upcoming Christmas stories. Brody will be released on November 26th…Thanksgiving Day in the US. Miracle Wolf for Christmas will be a December 17th release. I can’t wait to see the covers for both of these books.

I recently got rights back to the two books I wrote when I first started writing. One is a children’s book that won the Loft’s Children’s Literature Award and gave me my first taste of success as an author. The second book is a mystery…the first full length book I ever tackled. Both of them hold a special place in my heart so now I’m revamping them, giving them new covers. The mystery is also getting a new title and I’ll be including an excerpt for book two in the series….currently working on that. The covers are being designed as I write this ramble and I hope to share them with you soon.

If all that wasn’t enough, I also started work on my next story in the Big Sky County series. Such a busy week that’s it’s gone by in a flash. This weekend I think I’ll do some reading and binge-watch something good as a way to unwind.

Have a good week and happy writing to all.
