This Week 201

Most of my week has been dedicated to Patchwork Path: Grandma's Choice. As the Production Director for this project, I've been getting the book ready for the printer. The cover is finished, the interior book design is completed, and the book is back in the hands of our editor for her final read of the galley proofs. Now that the book is out of my hand, it's on to book promotion.

Plus, I'm writing up a storm! What a thrill to cross over the 25K word mark as part of my NaNoWriMo experience. As I write the new novel, I've noticed a few holes in the plot. Instead of taking the time to fix those problems, I'm making notes about them on my style sheet and continuing to push forward, not allowing myself to go back to early chapters and fix those problems. I'm determined to finish this draft by the end of the month. I'll fix the problems later. For me, this is an important tip to learn.

Working with 1-on-1 clients this week, I was asked lots of questions. This caused me to dust off and refresh a few notes, which are the core of this week's issue. I recommend Eva Shaw's DVD, Write Your Book in 20 Minutes, share my formula for the Four Paragraph Media Release, and offer a few tips to building your platform, plus there's an 18Q from Grace Tierney.

Keep Moving Forward!
