And You thought Your Vacation was Long



Yes, I admit it, I've been vacationing from the blog realm--but I haven't been sitting on some beach sipping a fruity (but non-alcoholic) drink. No, this has been a working vacation.


You know those times when (crazy as it might seem) LIFE becomes more important than blogging? Yup. Welcome to the last three months.





Things accomplished:

--Got my daughter through 6 months worth of school in 2 months
--Attended a writing conference
--Established & started teaching curriculum for 3 kids for a new school year
--Landed some PAID music writing work *happy dance*
--Started planning an updated website/blog
--Revamped a 3 year old manuscript
--AND RECEIVED A FULL MANUSCRIPT REQUEST FROM A PUBLISHER!!!!


So now it's official. I have to be a serious writer...as long as I can take my cheese with me. What have you been up to?

  9. Susan--Thanks!

    Carol--Actually, I hit that rung last year, but the manuscript requested has officially been shelved. I'm not sure it will ever see the light of day.
