Busy

No, I haven't disappeared off the face of the earth...just been BUSY! :) But, in a good way!

I attended the NOLA STARs conference this past weekend-whew! It was a BLAST. Met with an editor and I think it went well. But the workshops--wow, they were AWESOME. The one I enjoyed the most was Vickie Taylor's where she presented the "plot blob"...FINALLY, I get it! LOL I discovered I'm not a linear-thinker, so her "blob" was beyond excellent for me. Now I'm ready to dive into my stories!

As I'm a member of NOLA, I was presented with the "2005 Reach For the Stars Award" for my writing accomplishments of last year. What a surprise!

Still trying to catch up on my crits so I can dive into my cozy series. I'm really having a lot of fun with it, for something different.

So...anyone have any news to report????

HI Robin- Love your blog!

I'm not linear, either... I did note cards once in an effort to plot out my scenes, but they are still in their shrink wrap.

The blob sounds interesting!

Congrats on the award!

Hey I think I know what your plot blob is--I heard of something called Mind Mapping which sounds similar cuz it's all blobs of ideas.
