I know, I know...one more contest but hey, it can't hurt, right? Well, I entered the Mills & Boon New Voices Contest. Now, if you don't know who Mills & Boon are I'll tell you. M&B are the grandparents to Harlequin. Yep, Harlequin. They have been publishing for over a 100 years now. Based in the UK, they have this contest every year. You don't need to go vote for me, the editors will pick the finalists but I would like some feedback. I would really appreciate it. Who knows? They might like a story about small town Oklahoma.

Update
Okay, its time for a massive update for my blog today. I have added another watch dog, Coach Taylor (Kyle Chandler) from Friday Night Lights. He just won (finally) the Emmy for Friday Night Lights. If you haven't watched this show, I highly recommend it. You don't even have to like football to really like the show. I'm still in the grieving process that the show is over.
I have signed up for NaNoWriMo this year. I plan on using the story that I'm working on for a writing class. The writing class is with Delilah Devlin and Elle James (Myla Jackson) called Plot Bootcamp. Great class so if you ever have a chance to take it, please do. Wish me luck and check back in November for my updates on that.
Still waiting on whether I made the cut for the anthology. I will found out in October whether I did or not. I pray I did. I'm very proud of my story but if it doesn't cut it, I do have another place for it. Rejection is part of the process, right?
I have also entered a writing contest and I should know the outcome in October, too. More nervous about this one because if chosen, I will get to pitch the whole book to an editor. Yikes.
Starting next month, I will be guest blogging on a couple of authors blogs and I will let you know when and where. Its been fun to guest blog. Its amazing that people actual want me to talk. If you really know me, this isn't a problem for me. LOL!
Anyway...please sign up for email alerts on my blog. I would be forever grateful. And if not, that's cool, too. Ooo, also, I hate my progress meters. Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated.
Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose....the motto of Friday Night Lights and one that I will be remembering during my writing journey in the next few months.

Waiting...
I'm sure that this is nothing new for you authors but I hate waiting to see if someone likes my stuff or not. I realize that the editor has to read all the subs, she what she likes, what to reject, and if a story deserves a shot with some polishing.
Phew...I've never waited before and the bad thing is, I'm not nervous for the rejection, if it comes. I just want to know so I can either be excited or take my original story and expand it/polish it up and submit it somewhere else.
Thoughts?
