The end of summer, the end of the first week (of workshops) at the college, and now I'm sitting on my deck on this beautiful day trying to motivate myself to WRITE. I just realized that it has been nearly a year since my last blog. Shameful. How can I expect to get followers this way?
So what have I been doing since last year? I finished my book, The Other Side: A Memoir, and I have just begun searching for a small press to publish it. Today I sent a query letter to a literary agent. I have created a web page on google https://sites.google.com/site/theothersideamemoir/ and a facebook page http://www.facebook.com/TheOtherSideAMemoir for the book. I have set up a tumblr account http://www.tumblr.com/blog/fulmoonmajik and updated a long abandoned twitter account https://twitter.com/fulmoonmajik . If I could figure out how to straighten out my LinkedIn account, I could update that too! lol
I am also wrapping up my M.F.A. degree at Converse College and preparing for the upcoming semester at Livingstone College where I teach. I do plan on using more technology this year and have already created a facebook page for my students.
Will I create NEW work?? Well, I have started an essay about an elderly neighbor who passed last year in a rather bizarre accident. I hope to work on / complete that essay.
AND I hope to blog on a regular basis (or at least more often). Wish me luck!
