Progress Halted

The week for me was filled with reconnecting with friends and letting my creative juices simmer. I managed to write a short inspired by a good friend and had an idea for another short but as yet haven't managed to get it down. I received three rejections, which while disheartening has not dented my enthusiasm to keep trying with that particular publisher. Over on my writing forum I critiqued a couple of stories, which made me feel good as I pointed out there SPaG errors and put forward suggestions for improvement.

Busy, Busy, BUSY! :D

This week I have been busy polishing, submitting and writing stories. I managed to submit four shorts; two horrors and two literary, which hopefully will be selected for e-publication. I drafted six shorts; four horrors, two literary for submission calls and posted one for critique on the writing forum I'm a member of.

I joined Twitter too! @AlyssaSwanLake

That's all for now since I am still nursing a hangover from last night!!!

See you next Sunday.

New Year, New Start!

Welcome! I'm Alyssa and after a turbulent 2011 I am hoping for a calmer 2012 where I can truly focus on the things that matter to me; family, friends and my creative works!
I will be posting a new entry every Sunday to let you know what has happened regarding my writing that week. I may on occasion choose to share snippets of my work or whole pieces for you to read and hopefully enjoy.
Well , that's all I have to say this week. Wish me well for the week ahead and thank you for joining me on my journey :-)
