Creative Beginnings

I began writing a ms (manuscript) for a romance in 2001. It took me almost 3 years to complete it. I did sub it to one whole publisher and it was rejected. I didn't resub because I know that the story needs work. I was glad to get it written and get my first rejection out of the way. Since then I've been working on a YA (young adult) fantasy for the last couple of years.

I am also ghost writing a book with my son who has dyslexia. My daughter broke the 100,000 word mark this week on her ms. I was very proud of her!

This particular blog is a creative writing exercise ground, a place to practice the art of word-craft.

Thanks for stopping by!
