A Bad, Bad Blogger

I’m a bad, bad blogger. I haven’t posted anything to my blog since November. November! That was last year. I’m not sure anyone noticed, since I’m not entirely convinced anyone reads my blog anyway, but just in case, here is a list of my excuses:

  1. I was busy doing writer events. (Which coud be a really good excuse, except that one of the reasons my blog exists in the first place is so that I can talk about my writer events.)
  2. We had an ice storm and our power was out for almost a week. (This one is actually a good excuse, for anyone, really, but especially for me. Sadly, my life comes to a standstill without electricity. I’m a girl who likes her modern conveniences.)
  3. Christmas blindsided me again. (I always swear it won’t happen this year, but it always does.)
  4. After we slogged our way through the power outage and the holidays, I somehow got on a roll with my writing, and it’s going so well that I hate to stop and do anything else. (Believe it or not, this is true.)

Anyway, I’m getting my act together. I’ll post about my writer events from the past two months and also about events coming up in the near future. I can’t stand the guilt that comes from ignoring my blog.

Hi, Jamie. I'm working on two things now: a middle grade novel about a boy who loves comic books but doesn't possess anything close to a superpower himself and a mystery with a bit of a paranormal side to it.

Thanks for asking.

I see from your website that you're *very* busy!

Hi Lisa,

I know this is an old post but I thought I'd say hi. I just started a blog myself and am lucky to post twice a month.

Hey, Laura, it's so good to see you here. Will you be at the SCBWI Workshop on March 15?
