Late night working .....but it's all good!
Today I received an email from a Traditional Publisher I'd submitted my first YA Story to in May. This company has not yet published Young Adult Fiction .......yet! I queried my story because this particular company seemed to be a good fit for YA fiction, (in my humble opinion). So I queried them, explaining why I thought they might want to consider my idea. Surprisingly, I was fortunate enough to be asked to submit the first three chapters. After three editors read my chapters, they are considering it for possible publication in 2014! I am anxiously awaiting the comments from the editors!
So...........I'm hopefully standing by! Wish me Luck!
KEEP WRITING, SMILING AND SUBMITTING!

Best Advice! Attend Writer's Conferences
Hello My Writing Friends!
Whenever it's possible, I would like to suggest you plan to attend as many Writer's Conferences as you can. They are the absolute BEST WAY to do some fun networking as well as learn so much about our craft!
In early June I attended the Eleventh Annual North Wildwood Beach Writer's Conference. Held at the Convention Center right on the Wildwood boardwalk, the weather was beautiful! You couldn't ask for better atmosphere than the view of the beach and ocean mixed with the excitement of the boardwalk. I had the added pleasure of joining two of the Presenters/Authors for dinner after day one of the two day event.
Also, I'm excited to tell you that my Essay placed second in the Essay Contest!
I will be receiving information regarding another conference which will be held at a Winery in the fall. I'll share the information with you when I receive it!
