I don’t really have one, but my weak attempt is to ride on the coattails of anyone I can. My aunt [*waving*] just called to invite me to Leominster native Adrian Nicole LeBlanc’s upcoming booksigning. Her book, Random Family is due out in February. It’s been getting excellent reviews, and having read the New Yorker excerpt last year, I’m dying to read the whole book.
The thing that amazes me is that she spent ten years researching this and interviewing the family it’s about. Ten years. And I can’t get my crap together to finish my Nano novel. And that didn’t require ANY research or interviewing. Hey, maybe that’s my problem!
In the meantime, I really need to find a writers group in this area. The last one I was invited to join was in Waltham. Not that there’s anything wrong with Waltham, but it’s a bit of a hike. Plus that was a few years ago.
