More guestposts out in the wild interwebs

I think I've written more guestposts and answers to questions in the past month than in the life of my blog up until now!  It's been a whirlwind, but also an enjoyable challenge.  In the past few days, I've been hosted by two wonderful blogs:  Duolit and Adventures in YA & Children's Publishing.  Pop on over and take a look!  Both of these blogs are worth following for solid information on the world of publishing and writing.

Duolit: Self Publishing: Perils, Pitfalls, and Promise
 If you’d have asked me a year ago about self publishing, I would have given you all sort of persuasive reasons why it wasn’t right for me. A year ago, it wouldn’t have been right, not because of any intrinsic problem with going ‘indi’, but primarily because I hadn’t educated myself about the process. . . .

Adventures in YA & Children's Publishing: WOW Wednesday: Taking the Crooked Path
When I was a little girl, my dream was to become a writer and have my books shelved in the bookstore with my name big and bold on the spine. I started and grew bored with dozens of stories and never finished a single one. Yet that didn't deter me one iota from seeing myself as a writer when I grew up. I filled notebooks and journals with snippets of ideas, overly earnest poetry, and letters I never got around to mailing. When I was 14, I even started writing a fantasy novel.. . .

I am grateful for the generosity of my fellow writers and bloggers for hosting me.
