I haven't updated this week. There's a reason. I've been on baby-watch. That's right. Baby-watch.
After a difficult week of starts and stops, I became a grandmother for the second time this morning at 2:20 AM. My grandson weighed 7 lbs and 10 ozs. Mother and child are doing fine.
I'll be back to writing, revising, beta-ing, and all that jazz soon...

A writer's testament to process.

About Me
- WKEverhart
- I think of myself as a writer. Am I a writer? Only in that I write and occasionally, I'm published. I work in a national writers' group that call themselves the BIG DAWGS, and trust me, all the dawgs help each other. They're tough betas and tough taskmasters. I'm not the chronologically youngest in the group, but I'm the newest writer, a "newbie" as they call it. I've completed one novel with marginal success only in that I've had some agent requests for full manuscripts. I'm working on the second, almost there, but it still has to face the pack. I advise all other "newbies" to find a pack of their own, to seek out more experienced and preferably published writers and let them have at it. Maybe someday soon, I'll make the big announcement. "I've signed with an agent who's instituted a bidding war on my book." How cool would that be?

Congrats on your 2nd grandchild. We had our first last May, and he is truly a joy. Unfortunately lives 3 1/2 hours away.
Looking forward to new posts from you.
Thank you for the congratulations. He's a beauty, and of course, I say that without any bias whatsoever.:D
And what a WONDERFUL day he picked for his birthday, too. Proof he'll be a genius, gorgeous, and successful. ;-D

Well, I'm not too concerned about gorgeous. Physical beauty, that time when we're called beautiful by passing strangers lasts about 10 years for a woman and maybe 15 for a man. After that? Well, a woman's called 'handsome' for another five and then you hear, "I bet she was a looker in her day." The same is true for a man. "Oh, he must have been a real lady killer in his time." The operative words in those sentences? 'must have been.' As for the successful genius part? Well, I'm putting my prayers in that direction. :D
