Idle Hours, Henry Siddons Mowbray
38,536/Loose Daddy. If the storm clouds quit crying over So Cal today, I may make it to my monthly writer’s lunch meeting with Janet. Otherwise, I’ll stay home and spend some time with Sweet Taboo. Randall and Deidre are looking at me like I killed their cat. (They don’t even own a cat!)
Going through the files this morning, looking for a folder I could re-use, I found my children’s picturebook story, Lady Moon. This one went off to an editor at HarperCollins in 2004. She gave me a wonderful critique and thought the story lent itself well to illustration. So, I’m going to revise it and send it out again as soon as I find another market.
Also, I have to write an introduction to my e-mail interview with my friend Janet Cornelow who writes paranormal, fantasy and historical romance as Janet Quinn. So…coming soon.
The long weekend’s here! Yay! Sunday is Spa Day! And I plan to see PRINCE CASPIAN, IRONMAN, and INDIANA JONES AND THE CRYSTAL SKULL. Somehow, I’m going to fit them all in.
I forgot about Lady Moon. I LOVE that story. Why not pick an auspicious morning, like tomorrow: Memorial Day Monday, set the timer for one hour and revise. When you hear the ‘bing’, revision time is over. Then package and send it out Tuesday morning. Lady Moon should see the light of day, ironically speaking.
