Sounds like craziness abounds. Hopefully things have calmed somewhat in the last month for you. I'm so glad to hear you were able to spend Christmas with the kids. It makes all the difference in the world to be with those you love. We spent…

You're my hero! Go for it. Just don't forget that all that sugar can dull your senses too when you go into "let down". It's a vicious cycle. Take care of yourself and slam dunk! One of these days I'll say, "yes, I…

Tracy, to complete the loop here, I discovered the halo is not for winning in the past but for contributing to NaNoWriMo's coffers. Congratulations- onward and upward :)

Erm, maybe? LOL. I figure if I do 2K a day I can hit 70K. That should be REAL close to full first draft. I've got a file here showing that I have about 12 more plot points to write. I just took a 2 hour nap to warm up and I'm back…

About that Blog Talk Radio application. Go for it. I've falsified my location on my sign up, so I don't care. :P The rest of the info you can't tell anything from anyway. I always falsify my location when a site insists on it as well…

A digitally printed book is a book that is printed as needed rather than by bulk as the major publishers do it. The party is here: http://ptbertram.wordpress.com/2009/11/22/treasure-hunt/ I turned it into a treasure hunt. Thank you for hunting!

Congratulations to everyone who participated in NaNoWriMo ! It's a wonderful ride. Kudos to all of you who crossed the finish line. I don't think it would be inappropriate to name some names. Our own Poysen and John Philipp are winners of NaNoWriMo. If you get the chance, give them a virtual pat on the back for a job well done.

Time Goes By So Quickly

Well, I've certainly been an absentee administrator! In my defense let me say that we have math finals coming up in our house and my son came down with a wicked case of flu. Then, my insurance company decided I needed to do some home improvements, so I've been working with contractors and working in the yard frantically to appease the inspectors. Even so, they want more. I've spent more than I can afford already. Anyway, suffice to say, I've been quite distracted.



I hope all is well… Continue

Daughter Am I Blog Tour -- Final Week

My Daughter Am I blog tour is winding down -- I have seven days to go (eight if you include today) and I don't know whether to be sad or to rejoice. Since my promotion motto is "Promotion is just another word for party," I decided to rejoice and have an end of blog tour party on the 22nd and 23rd. You are all invited, of course.



The most interesting aspect of the tour has been coming up with… Continue

Live Chat and Dead Darling

This seems to be a slow weekend here on the Internet. I can never figure out where people disappear to or why. What could possibly be more fascinating than roaming cyberspace? :) I realize in some places the weather is too nice to stay inside, in other places it's too nasty to do anything online. Many writers are involved in National Novel Writing Month. Many others are busy procrastinating. And me . . . well, here I am, still virtually book touring.



Today's stops:

Contests: Watch Out For The Fine Print

Before you click submit, make sure you've read the fine print. I don't know about other contests specifically, but Writer's digest has changed their policy to require that the Writer give "perpetual non-exclusive publication rights" to the work in order to enter the contest. Right now, the submit box doesn't differentiate between the winners and any other contestant, but I have been assured by representatives of Writer's Digest that it only applies to the winning entries. But, as far as I'm… Continue
