I’ll be leaving my computer behind as I attend one of my best friends’ wedding somewhere near Kitchener, Ontario.
I wanted to let you know of the following: the first wave of reader-request postcards is about to be sent out. I’ve truly enjoyed working on them. Peruse my site for details and then message me your request for a city/writing prompt (please note, only one Chicago and one Mexico City postcard remain).
Writing hasn’t been my main focus these last couple of days (it’s fallen behind reading and exploring the very green Baltimore ‘burbs), and I’ve decided to take a break from everything aside from the postcards until I return from the wedding. The second draft of my new book, Bright and Blue, still needs some work, and so does my short story, The Rabbi Sent an E-mail, but I’ll let the need to write build up over the weekend. I’ll have a couple of weeks from my return until I head off to BookExpo America to fine-tune those (and the accompanying query letter for Bright and Blue).
Fiction comes from life, my friend Naomi once wrote to me, go live.
Have a lovely, lovely weekend, dear readers.
