Back in the Saddle Again...stay safe, Ya'll!

     First, let me say that I hope you and all your loved ones are fairing well during this terrible time. 
     Personally, I had been busy working in real estate, and with all the COVID mess going on, I've finally gotten back to what I love---writing. 
     I've just entered an ICL picture-book contest, and I really hope we will get the results according to the original timeline. Maybe I'll know something by mid-May. Aaannnnddd, I'm submitting picture books again. I'm ready to start seeing some more rejection letters roll in, but my writing has improved so much that I'm actually very hopeful. 
     I went back through my blog articles today, and I was appalled. I am scared that editors might have read anything I wrote on here! It really does help to put down your writing and come back much later. You can see much more clearly. 
    Now--as I'm about to sign off for today--I'm hoping this post isn't crawling with errors. Am I the only one who is this hard on myself? Could you imagine being a professional editor and realizing you sent an email with a grammar error to another professional? Yikes! 
     I'm thankful for critique groups! 

    Love to all. Stay safe!
