Author Shelly Goodman Wright

Five days into National Write a Novel in a Month, and I’m way below my goal. It wasn’t because I got writer’s block or my computer crashed, just everyday life gets in the way.

Today I should have been able to catch-up, but instead I drove around town looking for the article published in a local newspaper--my article--my first publication.

Yes, I know big deal right? But I can’t help but smile from ear to ear knowing thousands of papers went out (basically in every place with a waiting room) with my article in it and on the second and third page!

Tomorrow, I’ll calm down and get back on tract. A weekend with not much planned is a perfect way to reach my goal. With my iPod charged and a couple of projects for the kids, I’m hopeful.

Oh and for you Colorado Friends, if you see my article in Fresh Ink, Nov 3, don’t forget to grab it and read!

You can see the article on csfreshink.org--The November 3 edition Briargate or Powers.  I'm still looking for the Fountain one.  :-)
