Queries and Pitches and Agents ...Oh My!

So, I 've been carousing the blogs, checking out all the pitch contest and having a blast I might add. I have thoroughly enjoyed meeting new authors and immersing myself in my craft. I have gained a wealth of information and learned a few lessons in the process.

Unfortunately all this fun has wreaked havoc on my word count. I haven't actually written anything on my current WIP but all has not been a waste. I have outline and  mapped out a short story that I will turn into a novel for nanawrimo (which I am ubber excited about). So I have been busy just not working on my novel.

Don't get me wrong, it has not been from a lack of trying. I don't know if it's because I am so excited about my new ms or I'm too engaged in all the blog hops.

All the distractions only added to my issues on my current wip, which thanks to an awesome CP  Stacey I think I have finally hashed out my issues (or blog hopping...just kidding) and am all to excited to kick my writing into high gear.

So I said all that to say, although I have been having mountains of fun with all the great contest happening ( did I say I haven't been able to participate, because my book is just a wip, but I was able to host and critique you know the other meat and potatoes). I am going on contest hiatus to try and finish my wip and gear up for nano. After Get Your Pitch On is over I will go from blog hopper to blog wall flower.

Has any of you participated in any contest? Will you be doing nanawrimo? If so let's be buddies 


Thanks for stopping by and listening to my rantings... as always don't be a strange

OOPS! I did a bad thing

I try to always be PC and trust me I never want to offend anyone. With that said I would like to send a BIG APOLOGY!!!! TO Ellie and Ellie2 for posting content from her blog here on my blog.

I absolutely love her blog it's a wealth of info. I always send other writers in my circle over to her blog.  The reason I actually posted the content was because someone asked me what other pitch contest where happening around the blogs. I sent her a link to Ellie's blog after gushing over how great she was and telling her to follow. I then had the clever idea to post that info from her blog (bad thing).

I honestly didn't mean to offend her or anyone I was just trying to pass on info for those who may not know. As I am in the dark  a lot about things happening in the blog-a-sphere for writers.

I found out about GUTGAA from Angie, thank you.

I posted a comment on Ellie's page thanking her for  a wonderful blog, and I should have taken that opportunity to ask permission. It won't happen again. Again Ellie I am a fan, and I apologize for copying your info. Thanks for the lesson in blog etiquette
