Sacrifice

Sorry my post is so late, but I was on vacation this past week. Every year my daughter’s dance team goes to National’s for their final competition of the year. While the family went down to enjoy the ocean, pool and lazy river, I was up in the room typing away in order to meet [...]

In the writing industry, our name and our books are our products. As such, I think we face an even more [...]

Knowledge is Power

At my last RWA meeting, we were blessed to have five guests, new faces that were potentially new members. Once stuck out to me and I am sad to say it wasn’t for a good reason. At one point during the meeting she raised her hand and asked, “I have a book finished, but I’m [...]

Patti’s in the house!

Life is an adventure doesn’t begin to describe the roller coaster ride I have been on since I started writing. I joined my local RWA National; I joined my local RWA chapter. And I put pen to paper in the hopes of getting published. It worked! My first sale was to a children’s magazine with [...]
