Life Stuff:

Hello, my lovely friends! :) I hope everyone is having a wonderful month so far. Even here in Florida, I can feel the grip of summer beginning to lose it's hot and humid hold. We even had a night in the 70s this month... It was glorious. (Hey, don't laugh, northern folks, that's progress here! LOL)


All in all, August was a great month. Both the Hubbins and I had birthdays this month, so we've had a great time celebrating with each other. On my birthday, which was the 17th, he surprised me by coming home on his lunch break with flowers, a gloriously-decadent chocolate cake, and the news that he had the rest of the day off to spend with me. It was an awesome day. :)


How was your August?

Writing Stuff:

Well, I heard back from one of the editors on my Blurb to Book manuscript, Hazardous Conditions. In a nutshell, she said that she really liked the story but it needed some fixes before she could offer a contract on it. She sent along a list of revisions and a request to re-submit, so that's what I'll be working on this month. This is the best feedback I've gotten thus far in my writing career, so I'm super excited about it! :D I'd definitely appreciate your prayers as I navigate the self-editing waters once again.

Reading Stuff:

Here is the list of the books that I've this month. What are you reading?




And I'm currently reading:

I'm so happy for you and the progress with your writing. Some people would take that as rejection and not attempt to revamp and resubmit. I love your positive attitude and I have faith that you will see the light at the end of that tunnel. I am lifting you up in prayer as soon as I hit submit!
