Catch-up Day

Dear Readers,

Last week I promised that I'd write my impressions of the Fallon livestock sale. All of the images are swirling in my head, but it's turning out to be tougher to write than I thought. I promise to get to it soon. The notes are there, but I'm not excited about re-immersing myself in that day.

If you've ever wanted a mustang straight off the range, BLM is doing on-the-spot adoptions following the Diamond Complex round-up that's taking place now. The photo to your right shows some Diamond Complex mustangs. Their confirmation is often "Quarter Horse"ish and there have been some curly coated horses rounded-up there, in the past. I've never been to this sort of adoption day before, so I can't give you my opinion, but these horses will have been spared the trauma of being shipped across the state in crowded trucks.

I just finished writing & making hand-outs for a brand new writers' workshop. It will be very fun because there's a little role-playing involved and we'll be making a treasure map !

MAPPING YOUR CHARACTERS' INTERNAL LANDSCAPES: Explore your character's heart and head, chart what makes them tick and leave the workshop with a take-it-with-you guide to humanizing your book people and intensifying your themes.

I'm leading this workshop this weekend in Las Vegas at WRITE RESOLUTIONS conference & I think the conference still has some spots. If you know anyone interested in writing for publication, this should be great. Besides published authors, there will be an agent and a NY editor! This is the kind of small conference at which you really get a chance to talk with "heavies" in the business. For more information, click here .

Hugs to you all,
Terri
