A Hiatus ... and a Few Other Things

I've been spending my free time the past week or so, proofreading and editing my novel ... once again. I'm getting to the point now where I hope to start sending out query letters to agents sometime very soon. Maybe even tomorrow. As a result, I haven't been able to write too much and may not do too much for another week or two.

However, as some of you will notice, we have a new contributor to the blog. Luilu, my friend from another board, not my 2nd grade girlfriend, has signed on to contribute as well. Her first post is CosyIngle, the beginning of the science fiction epic she has dreamed of writing for years. So, welcome Luilu.

I agree with Judy's comments about your first effort. While it's difficult to comment on something that is not complete, that I know is just the beginning of something much bigger, I agree that your prose is beyond anything that I could muster. It's an beginning and I'm looking forward to where it goes...

And, finally, since Luilu has joined on, and I think I'll be getting one more joining on soon, I can no longer call this my blog. So, I'll be changing the description at the top of the blog.

For anybody else out there who wants to contribute, please feel free to let me know. I'll provide you with information on how you can post your own stories on here. As I said at the beginning of this, I'm interested in this becoming a community for writers experimenting with their own writing and commenting on the work of others.
