Are you ready for a mini-campaign?

 

It's campaign time again for us writers. Rachael Harrie just announced her fourth platform-building campaign. I participated in the second one, and it was awesome! I met so many great writers/bloggers there. It's totally worth it. Registration runs from now until February 15th, and this is a mini-campaign only lasting until March 17th, so get out there and register here.

Wednesday's Writing Update: Once Upon a December Nightmare One Year Later

Happy Wednesday!

I had this post all planned out, but then I went through my first earthquake. Yeah, I know, it was pretty much nothing, but still exciting. Did anyone else feel it?  


Okay, now back to the regular post.

First off, Rachael Harrie is hosting her Third Writers Platform-Building Campaign. I participated in the second one, and it is so worth it. Unfortunately, I won't be able to participate this time due to lack of time, but I'll cheer everyone on. 

Second, one year ago today, my horror novelette Once Upon a December Nightmare was published. I wrote this novelette in May 2009, and it had a bumpy road to publication, including a failed publisher, finding a great publisher in Wild Child Publishing, harsh and hard edits, and more. It's surpassed my expectations and helped me become a better writer. In honor of its one year since release date, I'm giving away a copy of it. Just comment below and be sure to put an email address so I can let you know if you won.

Third, stay tuned for a second post today where I wrap up my questions in Christine Tyler's Spark Blogfest and kick off the Favorite Summer Reads Blogfest.

As for writing news, I've stalled in my rewrites for Virtuoso, but I hope to get back to it. I'm forming quite a few ideas about some of my shorter works, too, but I'm not going to let you know about them just yet. Also, I'm working on a new PWP critique/editing assignment.

Anyone have any news?
