Fun Was Had, Stuff Got Done, Here’s the Highlights

TGIF!

That’s always fun to say when you don’t really know what day it is.

Fact is, it’s still summer. Jason and Samantha are home and I worked straight through last weekend, hence my date-confusion.

And yet still, somehow, I managed to get stuff done. At least I seem to have some results. So somebody got something done around here. Maybe it was even me.

“Authornomics” Interview at Agent Andrea Hurst’s blog (Also posted in Publisher’s Marketplace)

The short version: In which I describe how I got here, how I stay integrated, how I could care less about writing anything besides nonfiction (at least for now), my nostalgia for the good ol’ days of publishing, why the term “freelance writer” is dead, how I whip writers into professional shape, how long it takes to come up with a decent platform concept, and what’s coming down the pipe.

Writers On The Move Featured on GalleyCat

The fitness accountability group for writers that I started just over a year ago was featured on MediaBistro’s GalleyCat by Jason Boog. I am convinced that this attention has something to do with the fact that I coaxed my husband to do some design work for me this summer and he made this neato badge for Writers on the Move for me.

It’s cool, right? He’s multi-talented, that fella. (Thanks, honey!)

In the meantime, a bunch of us writers have been eating healthier, shaking our booties, and getting fit. Join us!

We Don’t Really Want Summer To End (Or do we?)

Okay, here’s the conundrum. If school never started back up, Jason and Samantha would stay home forever.

But if school did start back up, then they would be gone for at least several hours a day.

Hmmmm. I’m not sure. Should I want summer to end or not? I feel so…

Okay, scrap summer and let’s move on.

Well, as soon as we squeeze the last bits of fun between now until Labor Day. But after that, autumn here we come. I am in!

If you feel similarly conflicted, then read my article “Last Hurrah for Summer Fun” in Treasure Valley Family’s digital edition on page 44.

If you don’t, then read my article “Streamline The Back-To-School Paper Flood,” in Simply Family magazine’s digital edition on pages 24 and 25.

And if you are not sure how you feel, then you probably better read “Back To School, Back To You,” in Valley Parent magazine.

Hang in there. Only a few more weeks until school starts!
