A Little Bit of This and That

Interested in a blogfest?  Jodi Henry is sponsoring a query blogfest during the week of December 12-18.  There'll be prizes.  I'm supplying one of them: a choice between a query critique or a crit of the first 500 words of your manuscript.  Plus, the chance to revise and resubmit.  Check out her blog for more details.

Other updates:  I’ve been sending out comments on the queries of participants in my last contest.  I still have quite a few to go through, so if you haven’t received anything yet, don’t worry.  It’s coming.

I won’t be posting Donna Hole’s revised query today.  She was swamped with work this past week and hasn’t had a chance to redo her query. 

Wednesday is my last blog critique unless I receive more entries.  Hint, hint.  Starting next week, in lieu of blog crits, I’ll post the query crits.  That way, I can get back to my regular writing related posts on Mondays.

What writing issues are you struggling with?

  4. I'll be participating in Jodi's query blogfest. I would love a blog crit. Um...not sure how I can get one. I'm new here. And thanks for stopping by my blog!

  5. I can't believe I haven't visited your blog before! I have twins also, by the way. Ten year old boys (along with a 13 year old boy).

    Anyway, I'm juggling revisions on two books right now, but I like the revision process. It's more a time issue!

  6. I signed up for Jodi's blogfest too.

    Thanks for your patience on my revised query. And actually, that's what I'm doing here tonight - checking out your comments so I can get to work on it.

  7. E. Arroyo: At the bottom of the blog crits, it says how to get your own. I'm posting a new one today.

    Julie: That's neat that you have twins, too. Is there a reason you're doing revisions on two books? Just curious.

    Donna: Have fun with the query revision. ;)
