Book Talk


Met the Novelistas today!
Great workshop today on pitching your work performed by The Novelistas, Sara Jade Alan (YA Debut Novel: Spontaneous Combustion out on Oct. 2!) and Susan Knudten. The two were not in character for the workshop, but gave authentic tips on presentation and talking to an agent about your novel at the Lighthouse Writers Lit Fest.

Feedback


This week I have two friends reading through Naomi, The Land Between (Book One), providing me with suggestions on how to polish the book. Feedback is essential, when writing. It is difficult to see the flaws when you've been working for so long on something. Naomi popped into my head in April of 2016 and I decided to listen and record. Thirteen months later, I am polishing the piece and looking for an agent.

Thank you Elizabeth Fatica and Tanya Cook for reading through the novel for me!
