Oops, Murphy wasn’t quite finished
One last word about Murphy’s Law…Katie Kitten’s digestive system started acting up again Friday night, so I’ll probably be spending some time at the vet with her this this week. And of course, this is the week I plugged in a whole bunch of activities I can’t or don’t want to cancel. By the time Friday rolls around and I head for the Northern Colorado Writers Retreat at Sylvan Dale Guest Ranch near Loveland, Colorado, I’ll be more than ready to focus on nothing but writing (and catching up on my sleep too). I’ve commissioned my Muse (the Nag) to send Murphy on his way. She’s very persuasive.

Dead Wrong is dead done…for now
Of course, if a nice agent or editor wants me to make changes, I’ll say yes and go to work. But for now, I’m ready to send it out while I turn my attention to new projects (such as the novel I’ll churn out in November during NaNoWriMo). I already know which standalone suspense novel idea I’m going to develop.

Best wishes for Katie Kitten…and you too! Nice job with Dead Wrong. I’m sure you’ll find an agent/editor who finds it Dead Right!
