It's Thanksgiving! The blog has been neglected, and I have a lot to be thankful for, so I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone :).
2011 has been a fabulous year for me--both personally and in my writing. So behold, a list of 11 amazing blessings:
2011 has been a fabulous year for me--both personally and in my writing. So behold, a list of 11 amazing blessings:
- My healthy, beautiful son was born to my husband and me in June.
- My husband was ridiculously supportive and is pretty much the best husband and father. EVER.
- I had an easy pregnancy--I actually liked being pregnant!
- I prayed every single day: for my baby, and for the delivery to be as painless as possible. And it actually was!
- My son is meeting milestones left and right--he also started sleeping through the night at 10 weeks old.
- My maternity leave was a magical time full of baby bonding and writing, reading, and editing. Probably the best 3 months of my life.
- WriteOnCon! I learned so, so much, and I received some of the best advice on my MS.
- My new critique partners, Mandie Baxter & Jamie Manning! With their help, I've become
obsessed withmore active on Twitter, which has enabled me to enter countless awesome contests and get pub tips straight from lit agents. - Working with my cousin on this blog (even though we've both been neglecting it--boo work!)
- Getting four requests so far for my MS!!
- Getting into Authoress' Baker's Dozen Auction!!
Happy Thanksgiving from Anson :) |
