I just signed a publishing contract with Unsolicited Press out of Portland Oregon. I'm so excited! It's a long process and the novel won't be published until early 2024. It seems like a long time, but I know that is to be expected. Out of the thousands of submissions they received, they said mine was one of forty projects they seclected for publication in 2023/2024.
I wanted to share this with my blogging community, and expressly today with Poets and Storytellers. Many of you have been so supportive over the years. You know who you are, and a huge thank you goes out to each and every one of you. And remember, the only failed writer is the one who quits.
Here's a toast to poets and writers who never quit!
"What do you plan to do with your one wild, precious life?"
