So! News! If you’ve liked my Facebook page (or if you follow me on Twitter), then you know that I received the proof copy of my poetry anthology, Tuesday Daydreams: A Journal in Verse, the other day. I was disappointed to find some errors in it, but I took the opportunity to make a couple of formatting changes and now I think it looks great. Another proof copy will soon be winging its way toward me and I can’t wait to look it over. Tuesday Daydreams should be available for purchase by the end of the month!
I’m terribly excited, in case you couldn’t tell. 🙂
In other news, my friend Lisa just finished up a promotion for her novel, Cheyenne, in honor of a new cover design. Even though it’s no longer free, please click through and check it out. At $2.99, it’s still a world-class bargain and a great book to boot. Go on, check it out! You know you want to.
And that’s about all the news that’s fit to print today, I think. Conferences tonight will cap off a crazy week for me; hopefully tomorrow (TGIF, y’all!) will be a nice, peaceful day with no major hassles. I plan to spend this weekend recovering from my week and maybe working on my synopsis for The Lokana Chronicles if I can find a few spare minutes. I’m still collecting submission possibilities; I’d like to start submitting before summer. I’m still keeping my fingers crossed about the Dundee International Book Prize, but I’m trying not to think about it too much lest I go crazy with the hoping.

Congrats on your first book of verse. I have a chapbook that I threw together for a poetry reading about a year ago and I sold about seven copies. That was exciting – even though I printed about 50 copies. At least I’m not a pessimist, right? Good luck on Dundee. I thought the deadline was the end of the this month – oops! Oh well, if I can’t win, I sure hope you do. 🙂

Of course, Lindsey! If all checks out, it should be available by the end of the month. Naturally, a very excited announcement will be made as soon as it’s on sale. 🙂
