Getting things critiqued = Anxiety attack

I guess you know you're a newbie when you have an anxiety attack over posting your story in a critique forum.

I know critiques are good. I know critiques are helpful. But critiques are... scary!

I guess I just don't want to get laughed off the board. But hey, there's always the "Delete Post" button, right? And I am a cyber-stranger to these folks.

Here's to getting advice and gaining confidence. I sure hope that's what happens with it. :)

Alabama Writer's Conclave

Super excited to be attending the Alabama Writer's Conclave conference this Saturday! I'm looking forward to attending Jo Kittinger's Children's Writing workshops, and meeting some new friends. :)

Now if we can only get our internet back up and running. Hun's wireless card is terribly slow, and I have to fight him for it - ugh!

The Auburn Writers Conference - WooHoo!

After years (and years) of pharmacy school, I vowed to never take another class. Never.

What is that old saying about never saying never? :)

I've just confirmed my registration for the October Auburn Writers Conference, and I couldn't be more excited! The conference schedule looks fab, and I love that it is all about writing for children. I'm also thrilled with my workshop assignments (no more medicinal chemistry class for me, hee hee).

This time I can't wait to get my learn on!

Check it out and join me if you can:
