Making my own bookmarks

So, to cut down on costs of the all expensive promo stuff, I've decided to make my own bookmarks. No...wait. Let me go back. I don't want to always write about my writing. That's kind of boring. Let me start the day off as I started it off. I woke up, my husband, who is my alpha male, was very mad that I woke him up at 9 on his day off. Next, I sat down to write. I only got a couple thousands words out, but i finished the chapter while listening to Theory of a Dead Man "Bad Girlfriend." It's sorta of my anthem. Next, I went fishing at my little pond and cuaght four blue gill, however, I"m pretty sure there is an alligator and her babies living there. Okay, seriously, when you rent property, they should disclose there are gators in the pond.

Afterward, my husband and I went to Statesboro, of course, having to lock Ranger up, and I hate to do that. When we got to town, we went to Petsmart, my favorite place in the world. Do you know why? Chinchilla's! I've been wanting one for some time, but my husband says you have a dog, three cats and two gerbils. You cannot have a chinchilla. I, on the other hand, want two of every animal ever made, that way I can have my own ark. The problem is, I have only the same sex. Two boy gerbils, three female cats and a boy dog.

Then of course, we went to see Wolverine, which of course, begrudgedly I say I liked. Then onto Hobby Lobby. My friend Robyn said it's a great place to go, and I fell in love the moment I walked in. Whicker furniture, black wood and all kinds of crafts. My husband is an artist as well as soldier, so he didn't mind.

I picked up everything that I needed for my bookmarks, and I did a mock up tonight. It turned out alright. At least now I know what i have to do to make it look better. Anyhow, I thought I'd share with you a day in the life of Teirney. It's not too exciting, but hey, I like it.

IA and it's journey

So, TWRP rejected IA based on the children being an essential part of the story. After my initial anger, I realized that the story as is may just not be right for their company. The Distance was requested in full by the Champagne line is now under review. I hope it goes well. After the initial sting of rejection and outrage, I submitted a query to another romantica press, Amira. I queried early in the morning, and received a full request for the entire manuscript that night. I've sent it this evening, and impatiently await to hear a response, lol. I hope they like it. I hope it's not too hot, and just right for them. I don't use that bad of language, :) Anyhow, I'll keep you updated.

Oh, and we have a dog. His name is Ranger. he's a Weimaraner puppy. So cute and adorable, but very mischevious. His favorite delicacy is rocks. Yes, I said right. He eats rocks. All the Time.
