Harlequin Anthology Book Signing

Please see my new blog:  timetowritenow.wordpress.com for pictures of the book signing and how to participate in a chain blog to promote your book. I need five writers to answer ten questions about your book and then your blog reaches more writers/readers.

National Novel Writing Month

My Nanowrimo project this year is not a novel. It’s an anthology called A Class of Muses, and my ID on nanowrimo.org is JMK.  I've written first drafts of four novels during past Novembers. My third novel, Hada's Fog, is in its sixth and final draft.

Monday and Tuesday writing class members have submitted stories, poems, essays, blogs, and a group tag story to A Class of Muses.  Writing tips will be included and some art work too.

The book probably won't be 50,000 words, but I will  use the time it takes me to write around 2000 words a day to organize the many files into a first draft. I'd like to publish it before the San Francisco Writers Conference in February.

Pitch for Hada's Fog

After six years of writing and rewriting my pitch for Hada's Fog, I think this is the one that I like the best:

In her seventh decade, Hada Zimmerman questions her traditional family role and is shocked into a life-changing decision when a teenage girl reveals a secret.


WordPress Blog

I have a new blog that will become my primary one in 2013. Until then, I'll continue to post duplicates here at Blogspot, but it would be great if you would sign up as a follower on my new one.  I intend to post more often now that this difficult year is almost over. I'm feeling better and my motivation is back. Hurray!

The new blog is easy to remember. It has the same first four words:  timetowritenow.wordpress.com

See you there.
