If there is a good reason. During the past couple of weeks, I put a clean copy of Seeds of Power to the side and vowed not to open it again. I edited my query letter and my synopsis, but both need a little more work before I am ready to move forward. I decided […]

So it’s time to take the next step. I spent the past two weeks reading Seeds of Power one more time. I moved some commas and changed a few phrases. That’s it. And yes, I enjoyed reading it! I remember the scenes I’ve cut over the years—some I really liked and some that I’ll be […]

To get back to my writing goals. After a summer writing slump and a very busy start to the school year, I am finally catching my breath and ready to refocus on my creative work. I’m going to read Seeds of Power one more time and edit my drafted query letter. I threw out my […]
