Blog/Website changes

Okay, stick with me. I'm attempting to create a common theme with my blogsite, website, twitter and other social networking sites to make it easier to identify Melissa Michaels the author. I'm not an IT specialist so, this might take me a day or two.

I like the new urban fantasy banner. I'm stuck on the couch right now not feeling so well, so I might as well do something productive.

Later,
Melissa

NEW CRIT PARTNER

I finally have a crit partner. I just sent off the first chapter of the story I'm working on. I also sent the story out to my beta reader and one other trusted friend. I haven't heard anything back from any of them yet. I hadn't really expected too. I was suppose to send them the chapter last night but, I fell asleep while finishing up the chapter last night.

Yay for me! I met my first goal/deadline with my new crit partner. While chapter one is getting the once over, I'll start writing chapter two. I've already planned/outlined what I want to happen in chapter two and even a little further out in the story but, this evening and later tonight, I'll be doing edits on CURSED BLOOD. It's time to get those submissions going while I'm working on other projects.

I also have to find time to read DARKEST EDGE OF DAWN by Kelly Gay. I fell asleep reading it the other night. Kelly if you happen to see this post, it had nothing to do with how good your book is. Your writing is awesome. I was just that tired. You are one of my all time favorite authors!

Later,
Melissa
