This is the beginning, or is it the middle? I certainly hope it isn't the end. I started Heavenly Matchmaking: Meant to Be in November of 2013 for NaNoWriMo. The 50,000+ words I wrote during that madcap month have held up to my own criticism far better than the 100,000+ I wrote after. But I kept on and finally completed my first novel in September 2014.

My intent with this website/blog is to track my journey to get HM published, and that will be the end. Well, not the end. The end for HM. By the time I see HM on a bookstore shelf, I expect to have at least two more books in the series ready to follow it (See On the Stove for my works in progress).
As the journey begins, I'm pretty keenly set on going the traditional publishing route. While I can't guarantee where I'll end up, I'll share the searches, the decisions, my decision making process, the highs and lows, and the adventure.
I hope that anyone with insights and thoughts to share will comment. I look forward to reading those as much as I look forward to the day I can say "I'm a published author!"
