Inspiration
While at the NJRWA Conference (oh . . . did I mention I went enough? Geez, you’d think I never got out. Oh. Right.), I attended Eileen Dreyer’s Workshop on creating fabulous first and last lines. Usually, I attend workshops, take notes, and then promptly forget everything that made me go ‘aha!’ while in the workshop.
But this one–man, she is so smart, and so on my writing wavelength, I came home and rewrote the first line of Road To Passion. And I am actually going to consult my notes as I try to finish this puppy. I gave myself a deadline of October 31, but I am not sure I can make it. But a goal is a lovely thing to have.
And because of the workshop, I pulled Eileen’s book Head Games from the shelf, and am LOVING IT. She is fantastic, and I am thrilled I have The Unfortunate Miss Fortunes (written with Jenny Crusie and Anne Stuart, yow) still on my shelf.
