Okay, so it isn't quite - but it's so close! How did autumn sneak up like that?
If you want a spooky YA read try my friend Gretchen McNeil's debut - POSSESS, seriously fun read and very atmospheric, located in SF foggy Sunset district and oozing with demon's Catholicism and general exorcist mayhem with a great kick-ass girl protagonist.
I finally got to meet Gretchen at Books Inc. Van Ness, SF last week - what a treat especially with the bonus of meeting a bunch of other very cool writers too.
One of whom has a debut book coming out next year having got her agent and editor through the SCBWI Mills conference last year! Yes, I invited that agent and editor so pleased it worked out for them all. So there wonderful things can and do happen!
So congrats Tamara Ireland Stone - (isn't that a wonderful name?) can't wait to read your debut YA, TIME BETWEEN US.
And me what have I been doing since I declared my amazing progress? I had a whim, that took over three days of thoughts and actions and twirled itself around and became something real - dream to reality in three days!! Nothing to do with writing except it will be amazing - more later - yes I am a tease.
So, writing, a non starter of a week, but tomorrow = vast amounts of re-energized progress I seriously promise you!
