If you’re following the Adventures of Bria – you know about the 10 queries by April 19th challenge. And I did it! Not only that, but I’ve already received several requests for partials – there’s 4 floating around out there now.I’m amazed at how calm I am about this. I get that excited little “OH!” when the request comes in, but then I’m able to put it away.

We’ll see how I do when the rejections begin.

Next on the agenda? Ann is coming to do a polish read-thru of as much of our work as we can get through in a weekend. Should be a great chance to get some hard core work down.

Book two (which is about 1/5th done) is being Fast Drafted starting April 30th – that should be fun and “fun” depending on how it goes. Ann and I made a commitment to getting our Book 2’s done in 9 months and Book 3’s done in 6 months and try to stay on a 6 month max schedule after that.

And so, in the never ending adventures of writing, that’s where I am!

Lanie and MamaD stayed up till 5am Synopsising with me – Lanie started doing crazy things like demanding books be dedicated to her – so she got a blogication instead. It will have to do

Hi Bria!!!! I love you!!! I love the challenges and very ‘interesting’ conversation (God there is no spellcheck I’m probably making a butt out of myself here)! Chat with you later.
