Brief Sunday Update

June 21, 2009 /

A quick thanks to all of you who entered my contest. There were a total of 35 entries, and while that may not seem like a lot, I’m very pleased with the response. After all, this blog is only 4 weeks old and the contest demanded your careful thought and time. So…thank you, truly.

I’ll be going through the entries in the next two days and will announce the winner on Wednesday. It’s gonna be tough, because there are some great ones.

Meanwhile, I wrote a short story of my own last night – one of those midnight creations. It’s not a 200-word piece involving a wristwatch. Just something inspired by a moment that grabbed me and wouldn’t let me sleep until I’d written every word. I’d love to hear your thoughts. Click here to read it.

Have a great Father’s Day. And keep writing.

Okay, here's the deal. This is a blog about writing fiction. I'll be updating it with wisdom and nonsense whenever I feel like it, muse and caffeine permitting. For more info about me, read the Who Am I? page.

If you're interested in hiring me to help with your novel, check out the Editorial Services page. By the way, it pays to plan ahead if you're hoping to work with a specific editor. If I'm that specific editor, click the link. I update my availability every few weeks. (This ends the advertising portion of the sidebar.)

If you want to say nice things, Email me @ noveldoctorinfo@gmail.com.

Oh, and I write short stories sometimes. They can be rather angsty. And yeah, I just made up that word. You can pretty much add the letter "y" to any word and it works. Click here if you want to read some of these stories.
