Two-Post Thursday

I have to play catch up because there's so much to blog about, but not enough days in the week.

So, today I'll be posting two posts. Can you handle it? This one and also a Story-A-Week. I wrote two stories for Story-A-Week yesterday (yay!). I think you'll like them. I'll post one later today and one tomorrow. Sound good?

And I will not post any more about being sick or about people in my house being sick because I'm sick of blogging about sickness. So there. (But thank you for all your words of encouragement! They were very nice.)

I have been reading books. I read Baby by Joseph Monninger a few weeks ago. You can read my review here. (Another great book. I love having the convenience of a book-list!)

I have also been wandering around my google reader trying to catch up on all the posts I missed when I had the thing-I-won't-talk-about. That's how I stumbled across references to a very cool competition going on over at Angela Ackerman's blog, The Bookshelf Muse. Click here to find out how you can enter to win a three-month mentorship with Angela. You can also enter a simpler contest to win critiques of smaller portions of your manuscript. So, either way, check it out.

Agent Kathleen Ortiz is having a celebration because she reached 2,000 followers on Twitter. She's giving away book packs on her blog, so check it out here.

Phew, that's all I have energy for today. Have to go downstairs and check on the puke-- er, I mean, check on the children.

Stay tuned for my Story-A-Week later today, courtesy of Jesalyn's three incredible words.
