Closing in on halfway through 2013, we figure it’s a good time to check in with y’all on how your writing is going this year, and whether or not you’re hitting those New Years resolutions.
Have some news to share with us? Care to brag about your project(s)? Want to link to your website so other WBNers can check out your work? Are you on Twitter? Do you have a Facebook fan page?

I’m psyched to announce that my first short story, “The Jack-in-the-Box”, has been accepted for publication! It will appear in the next issue of Dark Moon Digest, premiering in June at the World Horror Convention.
After 3.5 years, I’ve finished writing and editing the second draft of my book and have started sending it to agents. Yikes!

Have written a draft of 3/4 of my novel since the New Year, so I’m actually ahead of pace on my resolution. (Which leaves me wondering, when/how will I trip up and fall behind?)
Fantastic, guys! Really. We’re very very *very* proud of all of you. Keep up the good work and keep on truckin’.
