Ready, Set, Write!: July 27, 2015

Here I am, a day late AGAIN.  But I am updating so there's that.  Packing to move children is terrible, I remember it being easier last time but I had one less kid and he was only just over a year old and had so much less stuff. Ready. Set. WRITE! is a summer writing intensive that provides an opportunity for us to cheer each other on wherever we’re at in our writing—planning, drafting, or revising.

If you have been around here for any length of time then you know that I have a WIP (or twelve) that I am lovingly procrastinating writing.  I will make really great progress on it every once and a while but then I hit a snag (usually my own perfectionism) and I don't touch the keyboard for months. Well I am DYING to finish it and move on with my life and Jamie Morrow has provided me with just the right nudge in that direction with  Ready. Set. WRITE!  which starts on June 8. Ready. Set.
