Welcome to my new-ish Wednesday feature. For the most part, you will find interviews on Wednesdays with authors who I can coerce into answering my questions. However, as many of you know, my computer crashed last week, so I’m a bit behind trying to play catch-up and retrieve files and things.
So…for today’s Wild Card Wednesday, I am asking for your help. I need you to do two things for me.
1. While I was able to retrieve most of my files, it appears my address book is gone. So, would you please send me an email? I mean, if you want to be in my address book (or ever hear from me again). If you’ve gotten an email from me in the last 3 days, you can ignore this request. If you don’t have my email address, but you would like to be on the Restoring Harmony email list (or you just want to talk to me), drop me a message using the contact page.
2. The other thing I would love for you to do is to leave a link in the comments section to your favourite author, recent blog post, article on publishing/writing, or even your own website.
To get the ball rolling, I will link to Editorial Assistant’s excellent post which is actually a series of her own links to everything you need to know about publishing. I printed out a bunch of these posts and read them in front of the fire tonight. You will not believe how much wiser about publishing I am just from doing that!
Next week…Sara Zarr will be here…I think. I still have to confirm that she’s not being interviewed somewhere else that day…but there will be an interview of someone fantastic and Sara will definitely be here eventually. It’s Wild Card Wednesday after all. There are no guarantees! Heck, next week I could be interviewing Oprah. Not that I’d let her bump Sara though.
Your friend and mine, Kristin Tubb, wrote this blog post at http://www.kristintubb.blogspot.com
about the first year of her first novel, Autumn Winifred Oliver Does Things Different. I found her post informative, for sure, but I also loved the idea that she is sharing her gratitude for a great first year by donating to a favorite cause, Friends of the Smokies.
Hi Joelle! I hope you get this all straightened out. I love Gail Carson Levine’s blog: http://www.gailcarsonlevine.blogspot.com. She always has wonderful pointers for writers.
How annoying about the computer. I hope you get everything back!
Here’s a link to one of my fave authors and one of my fave blog posts of the last week. Good guy or bad boy? I just don’t know 🙂
