The new critique group met on Friday. The insight, suggestions, and encouragement that come from dedicated children's writers is powerful. We all went off energized, with revision ideas and enthusiasm.
On the home front, we've had realtors and several prospective buyers through the house. Everyone is impressed, which is encouraging--as we await the one who will fall in love with our house and choose to buy it. We are in the process of buying a villa/condo just 1/2 mile from my in-laws which is just right for us. The paperwork involved is daunting.
Nonetheless, I completed Institute of Children's Literature advanced course lesson 6: revisions on the octopus story, and received great feedback from my instuctor, Kristi Collier Thompson. On to lesson 7: final revisions on the hospice story.
