Finaling and Other Stuff

May 31st, 2006 by Lia Sebastian

I entered a query letter contest at Romance Divas. Tonight, I learned I am one of the finalists! I have a day or two to revise my query before it will be sent to Kate Duffy at Kensington for final judging.

The funny thing is I had put the contest out of my mind. I scored low in one particular area, so I figured I was out of the running. I’m glad I was wrong! I’m also glad I can revise that section before sending the final query.

In other news, I finished The Seventh Sense. Now I’m in the process of cutting out junk words (that, then, just, so). Once that’s done, it’s off to the test readers. I’m excited to see this story a step closer to submission.

The Pink Posse chat on Monday went quite well, I thought. I did go overboard when it came to prizes, but that’s not a huge surprise. I tend to be excessive. I was hoping to make it to the group to chat more today, but things were flowing with The Seventh Sense, so I stayed with it and finished.
