They are, of course, some of my favorite books of all time, but I hadn't reread any since I began my writing journey. I am deep in editing mode (see below), so I actually got pretty excited whenever Jo used the word "was" or accidentally word echoed, or (gasp!) used multiple exclamation points per page!!! It just goes to show that telling a great story trumps all!
I am also reading BIRD BY BIRD by Anne Lamott for my Reading for Writer's group. We will meet up and discuss this awesome book about writing in a few weeks.
What I'm Writing: I am RE-writing. My goal is to finish revisions for my MG Fantasy by the end of the month. I am also querying my MG sic-fi on the side. I like to have several pans on the fire, so to speak.
What Else is New: On Monday night I got to be the guest speaker at my local library's writer's group (with my CP Jennie helping me out)! I talked all about query letters. It was fun and scary, but well received. I just love being a part of the writing community.
(This is my local library. It is seriously so beautiful. I want to live there.)
Happy Reading and Writing to you!
