Happy New Day! - Goading the Pen
http://goadingthepen.livejournal.com/109192.html
There are many New Year resolutions floating around cyberspace. My only resolution this year is to treat each day as if it were a new year. There is something about the new year that seems to motivate us, gives us a renewed spirit to let go of our failures and try again. A fresh start! I think that each day deserves a fresh start and this year I am not going to let failure or disappointment pile up. Posted on Jan. 4th, 2011 at 10:32 am. What a cute sock monkey!

Old Rejections - carriejones
http://carriejones.livejournal.com/402450.html
Mar 9th, 2015 at 8:53 PM. Sometimes, when youre a writer trying to get an agent or a contract, you get rejected and those rejections FEEL ABSOLUTELY HUGE. Those rejections feel like ALL YOUR WORTH is wrapped up in the word, No. A few years ago I blogged this (Back then I also used to blog about my dogs poopy butt. I try not to do that anymore):. So why did they reject it? Just to make me sad? Probably, but they said it was a bit too specialized and scary for the middle grade market. What does this mean?

New Website TBA - RANDOM WRITING
http://tamra-wight.livejournal.com/247910.html
If I dont write to empty my mind, I go mad. Lord Byron. Jan 21st, 2012 at 11:12 AM. Soooooo, hubby and I were talking last night and Ive decided to create a new website. The current one has gotten soooo old. Wait, wait wait! I see your fingers poised over those keys, itching to check it out. But dont . . . trust me. Anyway, I was wondering if youd share the things you like in an authors website. And perhaps the things you dont. What gets attention on your own website? A page about me? FAQ for new writers?
