A Quick and Dirty New Year's Post

This morning is first-day-of-school craziness so this post will be a shorty but hopefully still a goody. 
  • I had so much fun reading everyone's almost-kisses for the No Kiss Blogfest... well, almost everyone's... I still haven't gotten through them all! I will though, slowly but surely, because all this love and and longing is too awesome to miss.
  • Have you guys seen the contest on KidLit? Extremely great opportunity if you have a completed ms ready to query. Go on, check it out!
  • Thanks to everyone who participated in my Pride and Prejudice, with or without Zombies poll. 14 total votes, with readers who enjoyed BOTH books taking the lead. I'm happy to see that no one hated both of the books, especially since Austen is one of my all-time favorite authors ever in the history of the world. Not that I'm biased.
  • Lastly, how's everyone's writing going? I've managed to write or at least edit every day this year so far *grin* Hopefully I'll manage to keep it that way!
Have a great start to the New Year everyone!

  3. Austen is a favourite of mine too =]

    My writing is so-so. The boy is keeping me distracted. Sighs. But I hope to write some more today!

  4. I'm back to school today, too - ugh! I think the kids are still on a mental break. It takes a while to get them back in the school mode. :)

    The Kidlit contest looks awesome!

  7. Happy new year! I've not made it all the way through the no kiss scenes yet either! But they're such a nice treat to dabble in when I need a break from other writing stuff :-)

  8. You asked how writing is going. I want to submit another novel in a week or two and have told myself I have to submit two short stories this month as well-so busy. Happy New Year to you as well.

  9. Happy New Year! I'm editing right now. It's going okay. I'm getting stumped on the beginning. I think where to start is one of the most important things, and I can't figure it out! Oh well, it will come :o)

    I hope you have a great week :o)

  10. I'm still plugging away in the middle of my WIP. Wrote nothing last night because the heat went out and had to deal with getting that fixed today.

    I haven't made it through all of the no kiss scenes, either. But I definitely will make some time to get to them once the girls are back at school (on Wednesday).
