ON YOUR MARK, GET SET... WRITE!

I've sent my first 2012 short story off to That's Life (fingers crossed). I have also submitted my new novel manuscript to Allen and Unwin who run 'Friday Pitch' where they accept unsolicited manuscripts, and my second novel manuscript I wrote to Pan Macmillan Australia who run Manuscript Monday. I have also managed to dig up some old short stories which haven't been anywhere in a while and submitted them. I've been in the mood to make things happen, so I thought, why not take advantage of the frame of mind I am in? I have another new short story which I am drafting and last night drafted out an article.

I can only hope I can maintain this momentum. My muse has been very obliging.... so far!

What have you been up to?

Keep writing...

  1. I've just sent something to That's Life too! And sent a novel somewhere and I'm working on a new story ...

    Hope we can both keep it up!

  2. Well done - and good luck with those submissions!

    My deadline is a whole 16 days away so I'm trying not to panic. :)

  5. That's a great start, Diane! Funnily enough, I've been feeling more inspired, organised and have sent things out already. Maybe something is in the air - on both sides of the world.
