Busy, Busy, Busy

I've managed to do a pretty good job of reading through my second novel -- at least a chapter a night -- but this weekend is going to be tough. It's packed full of Halloween and birthday parties, a school carnival, a visit with friends, etc., etc., etc. That means I won't get to do as much reading and writing as I would like for a weekend, but that's OK. I need a break every now and then, and I think I see a pedicure in my near future.

I saw the deadlines this week for the San Diego State Writer's Conference at the end of January. I was relieved to see that for the advanced reading sessions -- where you send in your book and an agent or editor reads it before the conference -- you only need to send in your first 10 pages and you have until early January to mail it out. Phew! What a relief! I can't wait to get some good professional feedback on my writing.

Now, on to my manuscript before the dryer's done and I have a load of laundry to fold!
