“I’ve decided it’s time to be brave. And I’m nearly naked under this coat.” GET IT CHUMMY
Crazy late to this one but if you’d told me Call the Midwife had shoplifting nuns and half-naked midwives seducing their boyfriends I probably would’ve started it sooner 😂😂😂
No thoughts, just baby.
Cold pitching is terrifying—do it anyway. The best thing that happens is you have a new outlet to write for. The worst is silence 🤷♀️
Meg is a cornucopia of knowledge & one of the most gracious, generous writers I know. She says “ask,” you damn well better.
Anyway, I also only returned after seeing the Insta meme of “drop your blue sky” & I was like “wait! I have one!” So hi. Glad I don’t have pneumonia currently like I did when I last posted 💁♀️
As the exodus from the unnamed former Twitter begins I’m curious if this app or Threads will win out. BookThreads is ACTIVE. Is there a Book Blue Sky? skybook? Booksky?
Other travel in 2023! Vancouver, Portland, LA, and a quick trip home:
Also I took my mom on her lifelong dream trip to Ireland and it was a blessing and a joy and it aged me a decade (She did NOT like the Cliffs of Moher)
-?? SEO articles (I don’t want to count it was a lot)
- 2 Massive Mental Health in the Workplace Guides
-1 Monster Romance anthology for new writers
-1 new editing client
- 2 unfinished drafts for 2024 release
Laid up with pneumonia and instead of crying over my lost holiday quiet-time projects (any more than I already have) I’m looking back at what got done in 2023:
-2 romance novels under Kel Bruem
-1 novella currently querying
-12 Quiltfolk features
-1 Quiltfolk Journal
- 2 pieces in Polygon
