So, I got really busy (and also sick) during March and the beginning of April, so I wasn’t able to post anything. Sorry.
Last week I attended my first ever author retreat, where you sit around all day and write, and write, and write, and write. I ended up with a short story that became a novelette, and is now well on its way to becoming a novella at 12.5k words and counting. We’ll see what happens. The retreat was great fun. I even prepared breakfast for dinner on one of the days (dirty scrambled eggs served with pancakes and cream cinnamon syrup). I believe the total word count among all those who attended was around 225k, so pretty good!
This coming weekend (April 19-20), I’ll be at the Bard’s Tower booth (1531, so come visit) at FanX Spring at the Salt Palace Convention Center in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. There will be several other authors and editors at the booth, so stop by, pick up a few books, get them signed, and say “Hi!”
Next Saturday, I’ll be participating in the Spring Authorpalooza at the Orem Barnes & Noble, along with about 20 other authors. It’s free to attend and you can buy a few books, get them signed, and chat for a bit. It’ll be fun!
