Writers update

So... I just thought I'd post about three of my writing friends (mentioned in the order in which I met them). Two of them just submitted manuscripts! :-D

First, there is Susan Marlow. I call her Andi. (note: there are two links there) She (and the rest of us) are waiting until this fall when her fourth book comes out. I have the first three and I can't wait for this next one. The old west, a tomboy in a boarding school for ladies, the slave trade who owns an adorable little Chinese girl named Lin Mei... Ya'll make sure to pick this one up this fall. ;-) She's busy writing the fifth, which promises to be awesome. Teehee! Good luck, my dear friend/"mom"! ~Lyric

Next is Jessica Tudor. She submitted her novel, The Faery Choir, to agents somethin' like a week ago and has already had a few agents ask for the full deal. I'll tell you right now that when this is out, I will *make* you read it. Or at the very least, I'll make my friends borrow it. Jess is so good at coming up with plots that keep you guessing (and in the execution of said plots, she is amazing). And charming characters. Especially the guy. Miss Laura will probably want to take him home. :-P I hope this project brings you success, Jess! ~Jen P/Cora

Finally... Svenja. Or Syd. Or Squid. Or Her Royal Squidness. (She has almost as many names as I do. Well, maybe not...) She just sent her 52K word manuscript off to Firebrand Literary. I've not read any of her stuff yet, so I'll just say that I can't wait to read her novel. But I'm sure it's "all nice and spiffeh and perfecto" as she would say. :-) May the Lord bless your future, Svenja! ~Lyric the oread

And a *hug* to all three of you. This whole writing deal is hard work, no?

Why thank you, Jen! :) I'm honored. And I hope it works as much as you do! I'm writing the next book.... I think you'll like Cyn as much as Vaughn. Maybe more. ;)

Geesh! Where have I been that I missed this post? Oh, yeah. In Tonasket (we have POWER!!!!) writing on Book 5. Lyric, I have FOUR and a half chapters. Unbelievable! And pray for me, girl. I'm pitching the Early Chapter Book series next WEEK at Oregon Christian Writers. Remember? The place you were going to go with me? But...you are right. Next year will be so much better. And you don't HAVE to go to submit something to that editor, Jeff G. something, the speculative fiction guy. His classes were all FULL, anyway, by the time I signed up. Does that tell you anything about where the Christian fantasy market is headed?
Wow! Great news about Jess. One does NOT hear from an agent that quickly. Really.
Off I go to finish the massive editing job that is paying my way to OCW and for the bookmarks and postcards I just got for SFS (I'll send you some!) But not next week. Sometime. hang in there. Have you mailed me the ms yet?
