Celebrate the Small Things 4-7-25

 


It's the end of the week, so it's time to Celebrate the Small Things.

What am I celebrating this week?

It's the weekend!  And Happy 4th of July to all my US friends!  Hope you're enjoying a long weekend.

I've had some luck with book reviewers for Standing Too Close.  Not as much as I would have liked, but there are still a bunch of people I've reached out to who haven't responded yet, so fingers crossed.  Early days yet...

Only one or two more rejections on A Stranger to Kindness.  I think I'm going to take a little break from querying, get the new book out and then re-start.

Been getting some great feedback from my crit group on the new book.  It's at a really messy stage right now where I'm not 100% sure if what I had planned to happen is a good idea, so I'm going to have to write two possible scenarios and see which one works the best for me.  Sigh...  I always have to go and make things harder for myself.

I have quite a busy weekend ahead of me, so i'm not sure how much writing I'll get done.  I have to learn a couple of spin classes because I'm covering an hour-long class on Sunday which I haven't taught in a few weeks, plus I need to move to a different release for my regular classes.  Luckily I have one of those I know super-well and it's been a while since I taught it, so I'll go with that for the next fortnight.

I was interviewed about Standing Too Close and my weird-ass writing process over at Literary Rambles on Wednesday, so pop over and check it out!  You could win a pre-order copy of the book.

What are you celebrating this week?
