This weekend there is Archon 38, I am taking part in a writing critique workshop Saturday. On Friday as well as Saturday there are a bunch of writing stuff happening. I am sooo excited I LOVE going to Archon. This year my sister in-law is going to come with me Saturday to go to some of the writing stuff.

I think it's going to be a great weekend. Well I need to run and finish up my outfit and get some other things to get done. Happy reading Happy writing

But sometimes I get down and think maybe I should give up, but I take a day or so off just to get some fresh air and clear my head some before I allow myself to give up a dream. I did not post this to get pity from you, I am posting this to show all the dreamers that are having a hard time getting to their dreams that they are not alone. I have days were it seems like I will never make it but I refuse to give up on my dreams. I want everyone fight and work hard to make their dreams come true. Because one day the dreams will come true, I know it's hard I know it gets frustrating. The reason I think they(in my case agents but they is anyone you need to get to your dream) make i...

I have a treat for all you wonderful people who take the time to read my blog. I am going to post a small part of the manuscript I am trying to find an agent for. Please enjoy and let me know what you think please. From The Were I Have Become I turned on the TV and heard the new caster say “there was another vicious animal attack that brings the total to fifteen in the last six months”   Then the phone rang, tiredly I answered the cordless phone that I had sitting on the coffee table “Hello” “Hi Ann how are you feeling” a female voice said “Hi Sue, I’m ok I guess, just a little sore” I said. Susan Miller has been my best friend for years.  She is a lawyer two towns over and is a little taller than me. She has strawberry blond hair that falls to her shoulders, brown eyes and she is curvy like I am. Susan is happily married to fellow lawyer, Matthew, he is a stockier guy but not fat, he is about 5’8, brown hair and eyes, with wire rimmed glasses perched on his round no...
