Whew, what a few weeks it has been.  I went on a business trip to North Carolina for the day job last week.  That was a lot of fun but a lot of work.  I was working extra hours at that office nearly every day plus 2 days of travel.  Now I’m back and the first thing out of everyone at the office’s mouths was “Hey, welcome back…can you work overtime?”  Cue sigh here.  It’s nice to be considered so valuable around here but really, I’d just barely walked in the door!

I’m working hard on my rewrite of Schooling of  a Monster.  I have heard rumors that a certain publisher is accepting un-agented manuscripts right now that are right up my alley as far as genre goes.  I really want to get this done so that I can try that and see how it goes.  I look at it this way, what’s the worst thing that could happen?  They tell me no?  Heard it all before and the word no does not intimidate me.

I have a bunch more that I’ve done in the last few weeks, but for now I think that will suffice.  I don’t want to overwhelm anyone’s brain too much.  Have a wonderful hump day and leave me a comment if you feel so inclined.  I love knowing you guys are out there!
