She exhales, plus a great class for all you writers

I sat on my bed around 8:00 last night, staring at the screen on my laptop.  I had proofed the pages a zillion times. I attached the document to the email, took a breath and hit Send. The first 10 pages of my book are off the South Carolina Writer’s Workshop.

Exhale.

Another exciting thing happening this week: I’m a guest blogger for the Center for Women’s Lowcountry Women blog. They asked me to write about work-life balance.

I’m not sure if I have balance, but let’s just say, I’m an advocate for the cause. My best friend once told me I have changed careers like I change Halloween costumes. Her assessment of my resume was funny, and true. Click here to read the rest at the Center for Women blog.

Attention Writers and Wanna Be Writers:

My friend and fellow writer, Abigail Green, is teaching a 6-week online writing class: Personal Essays that Get Published. It starts next week (September 8). To register and to learn more about the class (and the wonderful Abby Green) click here.

Again, it’s an online class, and for those of us struggling with balance, that’s about as convenient as it gets.
