Guess What I Am?

A PitchWars 2016 Mentee!

As in Brenda Drake's brainchild, #PitchWars.

I'm so thrilled I don't even know what to do with myself except dance awkwardly and giggle nervously. So there's been a lot of this....

AND not ONLY did I make it into the contest, but Dawn Ius is my mentor... as in Dawn Ius, author of Anne and Henry and Override:

 


She was the first mentor I fell in love with because she's, well, awesome. Then I read Anne and Henry and realized just how brilliant of a writer she is. I feel so incredibly lucky she chose my MS to mentor. Needless to say, I'm ecstatic about working with her.

So, for the next two months, I'll be doing what I do best (and by "best" I mean "all the time") - a lot of juggling, a lot of laundry avoidance, and a lot of squandering all free minutes to whip my current MS, FLASH MOB MURDERS, into shape. And maybe, every now and again, I'll squeeze in a bit of celebrating in the best way I know how.
