Nothing like letting a month pass, huh? I’m sorry!

I have news though. Big news! My novella, Ena’s Fire, sold to Liquid Silver Books yesterday. So that’s freaking fantastic, right? I’m so excited. It won’t be out until next year, it’s part of their Hearts Afire fireman series. I met with an editor and several writers from Liquid Silver when I was in San Francisco and I’m just so pleased to be part of that group.

I’ve completed the edits for Keeper and just heard that it’s been sent to the line editor and seems on track for an early October release. WHOO!

And I just finished sending off my requests for my manuscript for Devil You Don’t that I received at nationals. So, life on the writerly front is moving forward.

In other news, Nick and Adrienne started school this week. Nick hasn’t been in almost a year, and is so excited about high school. So far, so good. He’s enthusiastic, even about his homework. I was able to convince the administration that autism doesn’t always equal resource room placement. So he’s taking all regular freshman courses. He does have an aide, and it’s pretty clear already that he needs her. Mostly because he struggles so much with over-stimulation in the courses that are packed solid with 14-year-olds. Adrienne loves her classes and her teachers and is a complete social butterfly. She’s taking college prep classes and an extra math class, so her plate is really full. Both kids will start drama club soon and joined Jazz Band, which is a before-school zero hour class.  Busy, busy.

Okay…you’re updated! Stop by and say hi. I need some love
