Adding Hats to my Writer's Wardrobe. . .

I sat down Wednesday night and wrote a book review for The Coal Tattoo, by Silas House. It is one of those lazy literary pieces that I lose myself in so very often. I wrote it in about an hour.

I posted on my writer’s forum where I asked for places to submit. Another writer suggested Midwest Book Review. So I sent it to the editor and viola! It is running in their March edition. So, I sent him a bunch of others I’d written. The editor had many good remarks about my work too. Perhaps one day, I’ll be good at something that PAYS!

My next review is for Carry Me Home, by Sandra Kring. The book sits on my desk ready to be read, but I don’t allow myself to read until all of my own writing is complete for the week. That ain’t been happening lately. You can read an excerpt here.

Michelle Miles has a short story out in Wildchild Publishing’s February issue entitled Mingled Yarn. Check it out.

I haven’t heard anything more from any of my submissions, but KIC’s contest winner for January chose a one month free subscription of my serial for their prize. I have a feeling it is someone I *know* but hey, I’m not complaining.

For those of you who left comments expressing concern for my son’s head, I say thank you. It’s safe to say he is back to normal and he’s confirmed my suspicions that he indeed has a cinderblock for a skull.

I wrote issue 62 of the serial Wednesday night and completely forgot Lost was on. I hope it was one I’d already watched. I heard it was a rerun. I need to type and edit it and begin work on issue 63.

It is another basketball weekend, despite Superbowl Sunday. My oldest daughter has a game Sunday at 4pm. Needless to say, the fathers of the girls are very upset (as well as some of the mothers).

Well, I have a few free minutes so it’s off to issue 62. Have a wonderful weekend.
