Today I received news about the death of Akilah Oliver. Though I didn't know Akilah well, we worked together for the past three summers, her loss is truly felt. My heart goes out to her family, friends, and students. She was very much loved in our community.

Wow, How Much Do I Like My Fellow Writers
A whole lot is the answer.
I received a very nice email today from Chris M from Pikes Peak Writer. If you don't recongize the name, you will the woman and her extrememly big and sweet dog, Ruh. Anyways, she sent me this from Publishers Marketplace:
New deals for February 22, 2011

Sci-Fi/Fantasy
J.A. Kazimer's THE BODY DWELLERS, to save those she loves, a mutant rebel in pink combat boots must decide between the treacherous body dwelling lover from her past, and a mysterious man who promises to change her future, all before her altered cells succumb to a mutant plague destined to destroy her kind, to Melissa Miller at Solstice, by Sharon Belcastro at Belcastro Agency.
Yep, that's right. For a second time, I'm in PM under new deals. And even better it was listed first. So thank you Chris for making my day. A day that The Body Dwellers was released on ebook.

Pikes Peak Writers Conference
I just registered for the 2011 PPW Conference in Colorado Springs this April. I'm so excited. This will be my 5th year attending, my first year with a book deal or two, and the first time I will be working with the PPW. The PPW is amazing. Not only the conference, but the writers and volunteers who make up a very special organization. I couldn't love the PPW more, and hope to meet many new writers while catching up with some of my old favorites in the Springs.

Procrastination Is the New Black
On Sunday I decided to spend the day writing. Yes, actually writing. I'm on a roll with the 2nd book in the Fairytale series, and wanted to use the momentum. Unfortunately found out, I suck at planning to write. I'll do almost anything to avoid writing. I googled frog DNA in the name of research. I did laundry for god sakes!
What is wrong with me?
What's your process like? Do you struggle to write?
