Row 80 Check-In and Blogger Ball

Sunday, September 18, 2011

Welcome to the SheWrites Blogger Ball!

She Writes Blogger Ball

First off, welcome everyone from the She Writes Blogger Ball! I'm Stacy, a writing mom who blogs about anything that interests me. My speciality is "Thriller Thursday," which features posts ranging from true crime to paranormal. As for the writing gig, I've completed my romantic suspense novel Light and Dark and I'm preparing to query while working on a new book, The Prophet. Hope you enjoy the blog!

ROW80

As we wind down this round of Row80, I have to thank all the participants who did such a great job of cheering each other on. There were days when I didn't want to write or felt completely behind, and it was wonderful to have the support of writing friends.

These were my Row80 Goals:

1) Edit/Rewrite at least one chapter a day of Light and Dark.
***First round edit to be completed by September 19.
2) Get outline and first 5000 words of The Prophet done.
3) Blog at least 3x a week and keep building my author platform.
4) Read, RT and comment on at least 5 blogs a day.

I'm happy to say I've achieved all of them. Light and Dark is in the second round of editing, and I'm still hoping to begin querying by November. I've worked really hard on The Prophet, and it's coming along nicely. I'm pretty excited about the things I have planned, and I've exceeded my writing goal for The Prophet by about 1500 words. As for blogging, I've stuck to three times a week and done pretty well on commenting/RTing. Overall, Row80 was a success for me, and I'm looking forward to round four.

For anyone who doesn't know what Row80 is, check it out here. The next round is starting up soon!

SheWrites Blogger Ball #5

Welcome to the SheWrites Blogger Ball!

Hello all you She Writer's! I'm Stacy, and I'm currently editing my suspense thriller Light and Dark, as well as mapping out a second book, The Prophet. I'm a SAHM mom with a precocious five-year-old, so my writing time is always jammed in between play time. I love to read and blog, and my topics tend to range from the macabre to the silly. Hope you enjoy!
