Upcoming Event: “Novel Submission 101″ Class

Attention Chicago-area writers: I’ll be teaching a class called, “Novel Submission 101″ for the Chicago Writers Conference in April!

I’ll start by telling the story of how I found an agent and publisher, and then I’ll talk about how to prepare a professional, commercial, stand-out submission for your project and how to go about finding the right agent or editor for you. We’ll even workshop some queries, synopses and chapters in the class!

Dates: Monday, April 22nd, and Monday, April 29th. 7:00pm – 9:00pm.
Location: The Writers Workspace, 5443 N. Broadway Street, Chicago.

Register here! The class size is limited, so early registration is recommended, of course. Hope to see you there!

KSW:Episode 2, ADDICTED is live!

Episode 2 of King Solomon’s Wives is live! It’s called ADDICTED, and here’s where to get it…

The story: Sonya is a rogue Wife who ran away to Las Vegas when she violated the clan’s cardinal rule: falling in love with a man. Now married and coping with her husband’s addiction to the chemicals in her skin, Sonya lives in self-made exile, knowing that if they are discovered, the clan will punish her and kill her husband, Ashe.

But when Wives turn up in Vegas held hostage by Hunters, Sonya can only save them by revealing herself, potentially sacrificing her freedom…and Ashe’s life.
