VCON, SIWC and NaNoWriMo

I’ve been a bad blogger. I was reminded this over the weekend at the Surrey International Writers Conference. I attended a lot of the social media sessions because I’ve been out of the ‘what’s happening in Social Media’ loop over this past year.Mysterious Ages, my fellow ML for NaNoWriMo.org and I spoke at the beginning of the month at VCON.

Writing Stuff

NaNoWriMo.org, VCON, SIWC it’s going to be a busy fall.

The Making of Hiding in Plain Sight

My new novel, ‘Hiding in Plain Sight’ hit the virtual shelves almost a month ago. So far I’m thrilled with the response it’s been getting.

Canucks and Novel Sales

Book Sales for Hiding in Plain Sight have so far outstripped all three versions of Jake.

Hiding in Plain Sight

I am a happy girl, my new novel is up and already selling (and it hasn’t even hit half of our distributers yet). Hiding in Plain Sight is set in the neighbourhood I grew up in with scenes taking place in my old High School

2011 Week 2

So here we are at another Sunday. It’s been a long week but it has flown by… a contradiction that makes perfect sense.

Holiday Mash-up

I leave for Saint John, New Brunswick in 5 sleeps. I fly during sleep number six. Hopefully I’ll manage a bit of shut eye during my flight but I’m taking along a book to read, another to write in and an MP3 player full of great music, in case I don’t. It’s times like these I’m a little jealous of my brother, he falls asleep as soon as the plane starts down the runway. No such luck for me.

Post NaNo Recovery

I’ve been looking for a job lately, while my SNB Consulting Services business has been great, being a consultant really isn’t my style. I’ve given it a good shot and learned a lot, but now I’m ready to take what I’ve learned to benefit someone else’s business. So if you know anyone looking to hire someone with office administration, web design, social media marketing and editing experience let them know about me.

Mid NaNo Update

It’s half way though NaNoWriMo and I’ve over half way through my novel. I hit 28k last night which is over half way to the goal of 50k but I’m concentrating on actually finishing my story this year.

One More Sleep

NaNo is almost here again and I can’t wait. Writing has taken over my entire life lately, so you’d think that adding NaNo would make me groan and say “Oh Gosh no, not more WRITING?!” Instead I’m energized and raring to go.
