A Little of This, A Little of That

My novel, Shear Madness, Book One in The Melanie Hogan Mystery Series, gets shipped off for a final edit this week. The planned release is in July. 🙂 The rest of this month I’m going to focus on the revision of Book Two, Shear Deception. And then July 1st it’s off to Camp again for Camp NaNo, where I plan to “pen” the first draft of a YA mystery series I have tumbling around in my brain.

My morning run was spent absorbing not only the wisdom by Sol Stein in his audio book Stein on Writing (The chapter on dialogue is among the best I’ve ever read/heard) but also absorbing the brilliant warm sunshine and nature’s beauty. Thought I would share a couple of snapshots with you.

“In our not-yet-acknowledged secret garden lie the seeds of some of our best not-yet-written stories.” -Sol Stein

Have a beautiful week, my friends. Seize each moment of every day, and make every one count!
