SNOW & A NEW NAME

  • Mood:
  • Page Count: first draft done - in revision hell
  • Queries Out: My first ever agent/editor appointments coming up
  • Motivation: too many opinions can spoil my dream - it's time for me to listen to my own gut instincts

Looking out my living room window I see white.  Deep drifts of beautiful white snow.  I say beautiful only because I don't have to leave my house today.  I can sit and watch the winter wonderland from the warmth of my home - cup of hot cocoa in my hand. Not venturing out into the ice and snow is a great idea on many levels.  First it's dangerous - I'm a nervous driver in the snow which make me dangerous to be around.  I tend to be slow and I can tie up traffic all by myself.  Second, if I don't have to leave the house and get bundled up - the better for me.  I'm not a winter lover by any stretch of the imagination...

The kids have delayed opening and hubby drives a Jeep - so I'm content at the moment to sit back and relax.

Revisions are moving slowly on Crimson Heart...which needs a new name.  I knew from the beginning that my title would have to be changed.  A very popular vampire series is out with a very similar name and I don't want my manuscript landing on someone's slush pile with a too similar title .  My light romantic suspense is no way similar to the popular vampire series.  Which brings me to what it really is.  I've been calling it a romancing the stone in a haunted bed & breakfast...so far my critique group has thrown some pretty silly names at me like...chasing her booty...and then we have some that could work...romancing the ruby...but don't.  At the moment I'm leaning toward either Possess My Heart or One Enchanted Ruby.

With an official agent and editor meeting coming up in mid-March - I've got a lot to get ready for.  Not only do I have to finish my revisions on this 370 page ms...I've got to get a query letter done, and a synopsis - and now I've got to rename the book.

Enjoy your day - even if you have to drive in the snow and ice...just be careful out there!
