Thanks, Marlene Dotterer, author of The Time Travel Journals: Shipbuilder (a great read, if you haven’t checked it out yet!), for letting me know about the Summer of Indie.
What’s that, you ask?
If you’re a writer or reader or both, you’ll love getting info about great indie books at the Go Indie website. It’s a great way to get to know up-and-coming authors and their books. I’m going to participate. Are you in?

A blog note: my editor has just returned Blood & Loam to me with her latest revisions. Although the book is getting closer to completion, it still needs a fair amount of work. It’s a dark tale that takes me to places in my mind that I’m uncomfortable going, so it’s taking additional effort and drafts to get the story to where it needs to go.
In addition, I have started working on a new idea for a novel that has me jazzed! It’s great to be working on books after taking a rather long break, but it does mean that I have to clear my schedule to make room. For that reason, starting next week, I will continue with Wednesday and Thursday posts. I will leave the Tuesday posts as “optional” for now.
Have fun with Summer of Indie! I need to get busy with it, myself.
I think it definitely will be fun! I am jazzed.
Dark places of the mind? YEAH! This book is going to ROCK! 😀
Well, I hope so! I’ve been working on the durn thing for a LONG time!
Blood and Loam sounds intriguing! I will check out Summer of Indie.
So glad you’re jazzed about writing!
I’m probably going to post a few excerpts from B&L soon. This one is going to require a slow roll-out, I think, so it can find its audience. I’m having trouble pinning a genre on it…sort of women’s fiction, but historical and political at the same time.
Hope you’ll enjoy the experience!
