After
a rather lengthy hiatus from blogging, I’m back! I let myself become immersed
in writing my current novel, working with beta readers, and editing again and
again.
The
story of Vic and Jago (pronounced Yago) in 1892 Granite and Philipsburg has
captivated me. I hope to share the story with you in the not too distant
future.
During
this time, I also let myself relish the wonders of life; adventures with my
husband, Jerry (hiking, skiing, traveling…); visiting and enjoying our family
in different places across the U.S.; learning more about ceramics and pottery;
enjoying the planning and celebration of our youngest son and his new bride’s
wedding; and taking the time to get or stay in shape—truly a challenge as we
get older.
I
am excited to finally get to participate in the Miners Union Day in Philipsburg
this weekend, explore some of the ghost towns in Granite County, and check out
the old Rumsey Mill site. Should be a grand adventure and delight to share the
history that interests so many people in Montana!
I
am hovering between the worlds of traditional publishing and self-publishing…We’ll
see what the next six months reveals. Ten years ago I had no idea what I was
getting into when I began writing a novel. Now I know so much more—But, I feel
like I still know so little about publishing and marketing a novel.
