Had another break through this morning, bouncing ideas off my mother. A bunch of stuff came together for me. A whole other plot line I hadn't even considered, which is now going to be a pretty important part of the book. My mother is awesome at bouncing ideas off of. She's got as devious a mind as I do, I guess.
In the world of publishing, here is an excellent post by Paula Guran at Juno Books. Good news for any writer who was feeling a little pessimistic about getting published or moving on to a different publisher. There is hope!
Yes, the slush pile is still alive. There are many editors who have found their gems through the slush pile, and treat it as mining for gold. Cuz it is! They just have to sift though a lot of stuff to get to it.
And yes, many writers get their start with ebook companies, as I have, but that doesn't mean we won't move on to something else eventually.
