Murphy's Law Strikes Again

Having finally received my editorial letter full of revisions for my book, I decided to take a week off of work and do nothing but write. So what happens? I get a raging cold. Talk about ironic. I've spent all week feeling feverish,hacking, coughing, dripping, aching--AND writing. I would stay in bed all day trying to multitask between writing and getting better. I've been typing and sucking down fruit juice at an alarming rate. Despite the cold, I still got a lot of writing done, especially when the coughing kept me awake at night. I'm really pleased with the changes I've made to the story. I hope my editor feels the same. Here's hoping!

A Picture Says It All

My editor had me visit the website of an artist they are considering for the cover of my book. Their artwork is GORGEOUS! I don't want to jinx it so I won't write the name of the illustrator until it's a sure thing. I'm really getting excited now. My editor also told me that as of this moment the release date for my book is May 1, 2010. It could change but it should be around that time. They still haven't decided on a title yet. *sigh*
