Weekend Escape


This weekend will be fun for me. Michelle, my boys, six Alateens and me. (Alateen is a 12 step program for teenagers growing up in alcoholic homes). We're heading up to an AA/Al-Anon campout and a lot of fun. I love these things. They're fun, relaxing and I don't have to cook! We planned this last minute, so it's all been crazy (of course). I'll be home Sunday afternoon, but until then, I'll be out of touch.
Nothing like a weekend in the Redwood forests for a little relaxation. I do think it's funny that I spend all week feeding, tolerating and listening to teenage drama and now I'm taking a bunch of teenagers on a camping trip. LOL. I'm a glutton for punishment.
For those of you who don't know, I sent a query, synopsis and first 10 pages to an agent May 26th. Now, I'm waiting for the response. I heard within a month last time, so I'm getting closer to a response every day. Here's the dilemma. If the agent requests a full/partial, I'm in trouble. Rewriting "Cold Vengeance" has changed it tremendously. I'm 110 pages (and 31K) into the new version. The old version is completed but needs a ton of work. There are several parts of the old one I really like, so I'm not floundering completely. That's why I've felt under the gun to finish CV. I know I can do it. I'm just going to need some time in the next two weeks. Hopefully, I'll get it.
Crystal Jordan (my favorite blogger) has just sold "Full Swing" so go check her out. She's awesome.
Shelli Stevens has subbed one of her books ("Tourist Attraction" I think) to Literary Sass. Brave soul. Be checking out Literary Sass for the reviews.
Enjoy your weekend y'all. See you Sunday.
