Welcome to my World

Once upon a time, my only writing goal for the week was: Write Chapter 9 of Dog Breath. It seems like such a long time ago. Probably because it was. At the time, writing was a hobby. I had no intentions or aspirations for publication. In fact, I had no idea that there were writing conferences, or literary agents, writing associations, blogs, or critique circles. My only feedback was my best friend, Deanna. (God bless her!)

Fast forward to reality, A.K.A. now.

New daily tasks replace that simple, naïve weekly goal.

Yesterday it was:
* Conference with Dog Breath cover artist.
* Start highlighting ms (that's manuscript for the newbie) for Dog Breath audio recording.
* Begin sound effects sound list.
* Categorize highlighted dialogue into male/ female/ and children roles. Type up.
* Type list of characters & associated chapters in which they are appear in ms.
* Speak with librarian in Marianna library about hanging promotional photo contest flyer for Dog Breath and library's acquisition procedures.
* Send follow-up email to librarian.
* Reread and note improvements for Chapter 21 of M.O.D. (Initials for book title of 2nd book in Sci-Fi/ Fantasy series.)

Today... well...there is a whole new list.

Welcome to my world!

Adult Comedy Fiction Novel

Well, I finally finished my adult comedy, a whole 80,000 words and 306 pages of dog, children, work, Mormon, and dare I say I threw in a little potty and x-box humor for the men out there..... as if a man who looks like Mario Brother's and smells dog breath for a living was not funny enough.... this thirty-year-old man has to find a way to make a lovely brunette advertising agent, who is the current girlfriend of his best friend and neighbor, interested in him.

So, I am back to looking for agents and publishers...
