Onward and Upwards

I am continuing my Steven the Cow series.  Steven is such a fun character to write about.  He is kind, caring, busy, and imaginative.  The next two books involving Steven the Cow are Christmas themed books.  I cannot wait to have him interact with other animals on the farm.  He and Eric made such a great team in my first book “Eric and Steven the Cow”, but I want to focus a little more on Steven himself.

I am still in need of illustrations and a publisher.  This process takes time I know.  Instead of sitting and waiting around for a response to query letters, I will continue to organize my ideas and time for writing more stories.  Time management is important, as I work full time and I am a mother of a busy 5 year old.  Besides the stories, I am still working on my line of greeting cards.  I realize that I cannot get all this accomplished in a month.  I have to pace myself and not make unrealistic deadlines.  I am learning a lot throughout this process and enjoying it.  Giving up on my dreams is not an accolade that I will be boasting.
