Karen E. Olson: June 2015
http://kareneolson.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Karen E. Olson. In So Many Words. Tuesday, June 30, 2015. I should be writing. The title of the post says it all. I should be writing. And I am. In the way that this book is being written. I am also spending a lot of time thinking about what is going to happen next, or what should have happened before, or what's going to happen at the end. So when I "should be writing," much of the time I am "thinking about what I'm going to write.". So I should be writing. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I should be writing.

Today, novels written for young and teen readers are as likely to contain inappropriate language, violent content, and sexual references as those written for adults. That being said, there are many teen novels that are classroom appropriate and tell stories of depth and character. Let's get on the same page! If you...

Karen E. Olson. In So Many Words. Tuesday, March 19, 2013. The return of the Naked Authors. My friend Patty Smiley emailed me about a week ago to tell me that the Naked Authors. Are back blogging. They stopped blogging about a year ago, maybe. And somehow they all talked themselves into blogging again. It's easy to waste time on an iPad. Not very exciting, is it? I think I'll go over to Naked Authors. And see what's going on. But I know better than to promise I'll be here more often. James O. Born. Aweso...

Karen E. Olson. In So Many Words. Monday, March 5, 2012. In memory of Jack Scovil, 1937-2012. Fast forward a couple of years. I had written SACRED COWS, with a newspaper reporter protagonist in New Haven. I didn't even bother with query letters this time. Instead, I called Jack right away. He called me a few weeks later and said he would be happy to represent me. He thought the book was "terrific," a word he used a lot when he liked something. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
