I’ve been so busy editing the first draft of my crime
novel-in-progress (working title: 39), tempus fugit so much that the trees are
green and the flowers are blooming here in Colorado. Which means it’s time to
pull weeds and get back to gardening, always fun. Pictures coming soon...
I'll probably be editing some more this summer, plus, I've been dusting off an old YA manuscript I'd given up on--and I still have plans to write a middle-grade. I'll keep you posted on if I'll actually be able to pull it all off :-)
Books, books, books
I’ve been reading up a storm the past few months, with
a trip to Europe and cold weather as a good incentive. I’ve been plucking
titles off newsletters and other recommendations, sometimes reading just a
little more out of the box—and being pleasantly surprised. I recommend Kate White's The
Secrets You Keep, in case you need some summer reading.
Mystery TV
David Tennant is my favorite Doctor (Who), and I loved
Broadchurch, so I was happy to discover The Escape Artist. So far, it’s kind of
terrifying and dark; looking forward to binge-watching the rest of this
mini-series.
For Writers
As the weather gets better, I’m already looking to the
fall: I’ll be part of the faculty at Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers’ conference
in September, and Rocky Mountain SCBWI’s Letters and Lines conference in
October. Both are in the Denver area—hope to see you there!
Until then, I’m
going to spend the summer editing, writing a few short stories, and planting
some trees.
How about you?? Any good summer plans?
