I guess I've kind of been missing from this journal lately. It wasn't a conscious choice. I think the deal is that with the novel querying and stuff going on that I've had bunches more personal emailing happening with people wondering what's happening (answer: not much, actually). After I've typed up responses to that stuff and had entire email conversations with a few people about everything, it feels redundant to talk about it more here. It kind of sucks because this is supposed to be my record of my life and I'm doing a terrible job keeping track of it.
Anyway, now that I'm here, I don't have much to say. Two months ago today I finished my novel. Yesterday, I finally started a new one. It isn't that I've been doing NOTHING in all this time. I've been revising, pondering feedback, working on pitches, researching agents, sending out queries, researching, planning, reading, etc. But yesterday I finally opened a document and started actually started typing stuff for my new project, tentatively titled: STOP THE BLEEDING. I worked out a "pitch" which is more like a brief description of the character's emotional journey. I still have no plot.
In other news, my husband is in two bands (I mentioned that before, right?). He is so busy with work, band rehearsals, and gigs that we've hardly seen each other lately. He told me he commented to a coworker, "It's kind of sad when your wife works from home most days and you still don't get to see her."
True that.
