Meet Me in San Diego

Meet Me in San Diego

By LK Gardner-Griffie on April 28, 2009

I had such a good time at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books that when the opportunity to attend the San Diego Children’s Book Festival came up, I jumped at the chance. I think this might be even better for Misfit McCabe and figuring out which cover I want to make the new cover. [...]

Book Festival Here I Come

Book Festival Here I Come

By LK Gardner-Griffie on April 21, 2009

I think I might actually be ready for the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books this coming weekend. I have received my order of books, have business cards, bookmarks, hand out cards, and posters. And I designed t-shirts for both Denny and I to wear at the event with the Misfit McCabe traveling book site [...]

Thoughts From the Morning Commute – Finding Othello

Thoughts From the Morning Commute – Finding Othello

By LK Gardner-Griffie on April 16, 2009

Last night I was looking at the list of authors who would be attending the LA Times Festival of Books event, just to see who else would be there. I am still very excited as this will be the first time I participate in this event. As I browsed the list, I realized a name I sincerely hoped to see was not there. The missing name is Othello Bach.

I am very please and excited to be scheduled to attend the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books taking place Saturday, April 25, 2009 and Sunday, April, 26, 2009. Of course, I have a lot of stuff to pull together to get ready. I need more bookmarks, more books, and all sorts of other things [...]

Thoughts from the Morning Commute – Authors Twitter

By LK Gardner-Griffie on April 1, 2009

It’s been a few days since I posted one of my thoughts from the morning commute. Part of the reason is that I took a few days off and wasn’t going to work. I was barricaded at home behind my computer screen madly editing away on Nowhere Feels Like Home. Since being back to work, [...]

Nowhere Feels Like Home – Tentative Chapter List

Last night, or rather early this morning, I went through and did a tentative chapter naming for Nowhere Feels Like Home.

Dancing on Top of the World

By LK Gardner-Griffie on March 30, 2009

I’m doing a happy dance because I have officially completed the editing process (phase I) for Nowhere Feels Like Home! Whoo Hooo!! People, I think we might actually have a book on the way. The phase I editing process is always the worst (unless of course I happen to be in phase II, III, or [...]

Day 2 of Good Progress

By LK Gardner-Griffie on March 29, 2009

It is extremely satisfying to note that I had a second day in a row of good progress on editing my novel, Nowhere Feels Like Home. With the starts and stops that I have been experiencing, and inability to focus on getting the job done, prior to yesterday, I began to despair (just a teeny [...]

A Good Progress Day

By LK Gardner-Griffie on March 28, 2009

I have been struggling a little bit with the editing process, feeling like I was going too slow and not accomplishing very much each day. Of course, there have been all sorts of interruptions to the process, which doesn’t help. I don’t like setting goals and not meeting them however, so have not been pleased [...]

Thoughts From the Morning Commute – Visuals

By LK Gardner-Griffie on March 24, 2009

Every morning my commute takes me down the backside of the happiest place on earth (now there is a blog waiting to be written) and I always enjoy watching the employees on their way from the parking lot to the job. Sometimes I see solitary workers hustling across the street as I wait at the [...]
