Midweek Notes from a Practicing Writer
Three quick updates from my desk.
1. Another excellent critique-group meeting in the books. I received some good suggestions to put to use with a new kidlit project I’m starting while I continue to wait for a response on one that’s out with a publisher.
2. Teaching is going well (so far!).
3. Looking forward to a reading I’m taking part in over the weekend. I’m going to read just a few poems from Birthright. (It’s not something that’s being advertised to the public, so I haven’t put it up on my Events calendar.)

Thank you for teaching, Erika. :]
Kind of you to say!
Hi, Erika –
I hope you and your readers have a chance to enjoy this great piece with wonderful guidance for all!

I often hold off reading the magazine articles until the print issue arrives over the weekend, but perhaps I’ll need to make an exception here, since I *love* semicolons!
