Many of you have been following my blog To Stalk a Publisher. My motivation for starting that blog was to document my journey to becoming a published writer.
Over the last year I have achieved that ambition in a very small way.
I've published two short stories and a handful of articles.
I've finished my first young adult novel Immune and ran the gauntlet of publishers and agents with it.
I have two well known and respected agents asking to see my next complete novel.
I'm now sitting on the editorial panel for the Litopia e-zine Muse, a fab new magazine that I've interviewed both Bernard Cornwell and Charlaine Harris for.
I've been a guest speaker on the worlds biggest literary podcast and hope to become a regular.
I've seen over 10,000 visitors on my website since August 2008.
All in all it's been a pretty damn good year for me. So no book deal yet... but it's only a matter of time :)
Where now? Well I'll keep To Stalk a Publisher going, keep updating those of you who read my blog and enjoy it but I want to go in another direction. Instead of just updating you with writing news I want to write some pieces that will make you giggle and smile.
So.... here it is, The House of Burning Bras.
Enjoy!
Okay, The House of Burning Bras it is.
ReplyDeleteYou are one impressive young lady - I really admire your daring do and your diligence and I am downright jealous of your relentless pursuit to succeed as a writer. As I see it you've already achieved that success - you just don't get paid for it yet - yet. But you have to know Em that you are a writer, pay or no pay. Pretty good too. :)
