Welcome to Terry's Place. I'm an author of mystery and romance, happy to share what I'm learning, both about writing and anything I find interesting.

And the Winner is...
The winner of March's "Follow Me" contest is Shirley. She wins an ARC of WHERE DANGER HIDES. There's a new contest for April, so be sure to check the Contest Tab. Thanks to all who entered.
I was not the only writer who thought the two fellows on the panel were rather cavalier with their advice. Of course, most writers don't want to write to an exact forumula, but those of us who are still striving to be published (as well as some who already are), it felt like we should just ignore what publishers want. In fact, Mike actually said something along the lines of "The editors can take a flying leap." I thought that panel was useless, except that I got to hear the delightful British author, Zoe Sharp.
Congrats to Shirley! :)

Totally off-topic, but I just read WHAT'S IN A NAME. Thank you so very much for writing it. It was just right!
ReplyDeleteTexanne: Telling me you liked my book is NEVER off topic! Thanks so much.
