Spring Break Continued

It's officially Wednesday. I haven't set foot in my classroom like I'd planned. Oh well. There's always Sunday before I go back.

I managed to send out 2 more queries on FP on Monday afternoon. Yay!

Later this morning I'm mailing my latest contest entry. This will be my first time to send out the latest story, TCAFS. I'm still writing it, but by the time the finalists are announced (June) I'll be in the revision stage. (That's only relevant if it finals, of course!)

Around noontime I leave for my unofficial writing retreat! Big yay! I say unofficial because it's not sponsored by any writing group. It's just me and my mom, sort of like a girls' only trip. My poor stepdad will just have to find some way to survive! My mom writes poetry and non-fiction but isn't published yet either. She could be. She's just got a lot of other priorities in her life right now.

Anyway, this retreat was her idea and we're both so excited! We're driving to a little town a couple hours away and we'll be gone until Friday. I just hope I can get lots of work done. Oh, who am I kidding? My muse has decided spring break is the perfect time to play! The creative juices are bound to continue in a place where I have NOTHING else to do. I'll let you know how it goes!

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
