Why not me?

Do you ever wonder why you weren't invited?


I think we all must have asked ourselves that question. Some event comes up that excites us, and we wait in anticipation for the big invite that never comes. Disappointment takes over our emotions, and then anger develops as we wonder why we were left out. And we ask,,, why not me?


I think as authors, we have all dealt with this in one way or another. We submit our query letters and we wait. Then when the invitation to submit our manuscript does not come, we feel let down.


An invitation to a party we just knew we should have been invited to, is about the same as an invitation to submit our work to an editor.  The disappointments are the same and the rejection is the same. But god love us all, we are strong. One rejection, whether it be from that long awaited party, wedding, baby-shower, or manuscript,,,,  should not rule our day. 


Get up, get dressed, write-write-write,,, and have a great day...............

Sees caramels and books

Ooh-la-la,,, See's has their double caramels again. I'm off to the store to get some,,, 
Eating candy and reading go hand in hand. A caramel in one and a book in the other. Or in my case, a keyboard in the other. 


Have a fabulous Sunday, it is raining here in Clovis, but a lovely day nonetheless....

Sierra Sky Ranch & The Hangover 2

Went with some friends and saw "The Hangover 2" It was absolutely hilarious but really way over the top.... I cant wait to see what they do with #3 it can only be about Allen.... haha


Also, I took my husband to the Sierra Sky Ranch for our anniversary Monday night. I highly recommend the place. We were treated like the queen and king of the ball. If you are ever in the need of a place to stay in Oakhurst CA, drop in and say hello. Oh, and did I say it was haunted?????

The dreaded Protagonist

Have you ever created a protagonist that you find yourself falling in love with instead of hating? Call me weird  but I love when that happens. Maybe I'm a sucker for the underdog, or maybe I just love challenging the mind. Whatever the case, I say,,, "You GO protagonist" 


Have a fabulous Memorial Day,,, and don't let your protagonist get in your way,,, :-)
