Danielle. Wife. Author. Mother.: deadline

So yesterday I posted something that I'd originally typed and intended to publish in January. Why did it not go up until then? I started working on my novel revising and polishing and once I got in the grove I couldn't stop :D

The sum of not posting for two months? MY NOVEL IS FINISHED AND POLISHED! I've got to send out the final stuff to my beta readers, but I'm sending out queries and ecstatic to have things actually happening. And knowing that this is going to be my year. Whether I get a good publishing deal or not, I now know enough and I'm confident enough that if I don't get any interest from publishers or agents I'll go ahead and publish this novel myself.

And although this blog languished on the back burner essentially, I'm very glad it did. Now come April, after I've sent off my queries, I'm going to refocus back on this blog and make all the adjustments and tweaks I've imagined for it.

Thanks, dear readers, for sticking with me. This blog and everything wifey, authory and mothery will come back online and on schedule soon!

Cheers!

p.s. There have been some amazing novel review requests that have come in, and I promise I haven't overlooked any of them. I can't wait to read a ton of these so keep them coming! :D

So a rather short post today as I'm typing this on my cellphone because the power cord on my laptop is toast. Bah humbug. Which also means my writing has come to a standstill. And in case any of you lovely readers haven't noticed I didn't make my April deadline for my book which is why the blog's been dead for a couple months. I have been able to get a lot of work done on my novel and submissions just not enough. The fact that I just moved from Langley to Kamloops though might have something to do with that. Moving is so annoying and frustrating. Not knowing where anything is and having to organize and unpack. Blech. Thankfully now that I'm actually in Kamloops I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Right now the plan is to be doing book reviews and weekly blog posts again by Aug 16th. On a different note keep sending in those book review requests. I've seen some great ones that I can't wait to read. Have a great summer everyone and make sure to take some time once in a while to sit underneath a tree and read a good book! (Or e-book :D )
