I know it’s been a LONG time since I’ve updated here. My plate has been rather full these days. I completed my edits on The Oliver House, but have not yet had any luck enticing and agent. You’d think the had hundreds of authors to choose from or something…
So in the midst of the submission process I got this insane idea. I questioned others about it and asked if it might be something worth writing, and apparently they all thought it was.
So I’ve started a new novel called, Taming the Crazies. It’s a story about a teenage girl struggling with the impact her brother’s bipolar disorder has had on not only her, but her entire family. (You can read more about it on my Projects Page) As of right now I’m in love with it, but we all know how that goes…so this time I’m not going to shout from the mountaintops professing my love. (Though I may visit a hill…totally different!)
On top of that, and partially fueled by it, I got another insane idea. I started a new website. I’m not going to say it’s a blog, cuz really…it is so much more than a blog. I have teamed up with an amazing teenager who is also suffering from bipolar disorder. (If you didn’t know, I suffer from it also, as does my son) Together we have created www.askabipolar.com where we answer peoples questions about the illness from the perspective of someone who’s been there. So far its going well. I hope that continues!!!
If you get a chance, check it out and cheer me on!!
You will also see some updates being made to this site in the future. For now they are just basic (like I changed my photo and updated my projects) but I’m hoping to unveil something a little more spectacular soon!
Hope all is well!
