The classes were VERY informative and gave me a lot to think about. Jewel Adam's class on publishing e-books has my mind churning with all sorts of possibilities. Rachelle Christensen's class on blog tours inspired a great idea for a contest. Except, now I wonder if it is such a great idea...I'm mulling it over. (So, stay tuned. I may be holding a fun contest in the near future!) Julie Coulter Bellon inspired me with her presentation on making time for our talents. She's written eight novels in just 15 minutes a day! Amazing lady.
I've got all sorts of questions rattling in my brain now about e-books and traditional publishers and markets and marketing and just what I want to achieve with my own writing. I'm a bit unsettled, actually.
But, I have started brainstorming a new novel! The processes is rather like falling in love. Fun, exciting and terrifying all at the same time. Regardless of the answers I come up with to all my new questions, the creating, the writing, the imagining--that's what really matters.

Hope you find answers to all your questions! But as you mentioned, the creating, writing and imagining are all that really matters.
Nothing wrong with reassessing where you're at. Good luck with the brainstorming!
whatever you choose you will do well
hooray for a new novel how exciting
and you know me & my camrea just think of your camrea as a writing tool and always carry it in your bag
Todd, Terry, Tiff--thanks for the support. You guys are great!
I really wish I'd known about that little conference ~ sounds like it was a winner!
And really? Julie's done that? I had no idea! That's amazing!
Good luck with your new love! I hope it's a keeper!
I LOVE starting something new...
Now always a good thing.
And 15 minutes a day?? I'd go CRAZY! I spend my first 15 minutes of writing time reading over what I read the previous day. THEN I jump into it and at about 30 minutes of typing, I'm really in the swing...
I'm giving out awards for the A-Z challenge participants and as I browsed your blog I decided to award you the Beautiful Mommy Writer Award.
Go to http://astorybookworld.blogspot.com/p/awards.html and pick up your award.

PS. You could easily fit into several of my award areas, but with 6 children you deserve this award! I have a hard enough time with one crazy 2 year old!
Thanks, Deirdra! That's so sweet of you. =)
Sounds like a great conference! And writing 8 books from 15 mins a day? I want to know all about THAT! :)

I wish I had been able to attend that conference. I'm glad you got to go. Good luck on your new idea!
I like hwo you compare it to falling in love!!! go you!

Sounds like a good experience. I'm trying to remember if I ever visited Ephraim. But mostly I'm wondering about all those possibilities of publishing ebooks... Like you say, got to keep writing too.
