Icarus Wings

 

ON MY iPOD : Rehab by Amy Winehouse

Well, I thought that my first official post on my new website would be a reflection. I just sent in my full MS to an agent, and it got me thinking about the uneasy feeling, as a writer, one gets when they first send that well-polished manuscript out. We give it wings and hope to God that the thing can fly on its own. We pray it will sing. But as we patiently wait weeks, even months, we begin to feel that perhaps our precious little creation maybe has Icarus Wings and might fall to its death just the same.  That’s my thought, and sums up how I feel currently.

What I'm reading right now....

8-30-10 : I just finished reading the AWESOME Kate Pearce's KISS OF THE ROSE (A Tudor Vampire Series) and I LOVED it. Now, I'm working my way through the tons of books I recieved from RWA Nationals. First on my list is Meg Cabot's INSATIABLE. I just love her voice. It's like a crossover. It has the feel of YA but with older characters. I am really enjoying the book so far.

3-6-10 : Well I splurged today. I bought 4 eBooks. I got the next two House of Night, Betrayed and Chosen. I was surprised that I whipped through the first one so fast. It wasnt brilliant writing, but hey, I read it in about three days. I aslo downloaded Abraham Lincoln : Vampire Hunter by Seth Grahame-Smith. I am very excited to read this one. His first one about Jane Austen and zombies didn't look appealing, but this one does.

2-28-10 : I finished Hush, Hush and enjoyed it. Now, I'm reading Marked by PC and Kristen Cast. It's definitely different for a vampire novel. I also finished Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief. Now I'm reading Sea of Monsters.

1-11-10 : I bought two more ebooks! Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick and a PC Cast vampire book. Details later. But I am liking Hush, Hush.
