Have you visited YA Muses? They are a lovely, helpful, inspiring quartet, all with backgrounds, current writing-situations and future-talk I appreciate. They inspire me. They give me hope, or remind me that there is hope when it comes to writing the book, searching for publication and—well, you might give them a peek. I peek in at least twice weekly. Last week, I won a book from them. Since I’ve just finished The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins (yeah, I know: PB? You are the last person on the planet to read this book), I am ready for fresh bookmeat. The dystopian YA world, a genre I have never written in or read much of, is starting to uber- fascinate me.

And now? Back to the middle-grade genre and meeting my goals sooner rather than—next week. For the love of all frogfishes, happy revising!
