I've Got Mail!

As I mentioned last week, I was the winner of Justine Dell's awesome Worst One Line Pitch contest. Well, my prizes have come in the mail! I've been using my nifty little bookmark since Friday and my "Love and the Body," by Dave Malone just came today.

Well, I knew I was going to get a signed copy of the book (exciting!), but I didn't know I was going to get a personalized signed copy of the book! That was a nice little surprise!

I, of course, started reading "Love and the Body" and let me tell you, the poems are amazing! Very vivid. I highly suggest it for all you poetry lovers out there.

Though I missed Monday Update because of the holiday, I still want to hold myself accountable to you dear readers. I'm actually quite ahead of schedule. Over the last few days, I've been able to get a chapter done a day. I'm hoping to be able to keep up this momentum. If I can, revisions will be done in two weeks!

Nathan Bransford is having a ROCK PAPER TIGER Chase/Action Writing Contest Extravaganza!! If you have a suitable scene to submit, I suggest you take advantage of the opportunity. I'm thinking of entering a particular scene myself, but I'm finding it hard to stay within the 500 word limit.

Thanks again to Justine and Dave Malone! And good luck to everyone who enters the contest!
