A Busy Weekend

On Friday this week, I’ll be helping at the GLAWS booth at the Writers Digest Convention being held at the Loew’s in Hollywood. It will be interesting to observe the goings-on.

On Saturday, in the afternoon the GLAWS Special Speaker Event (at the Palms-Rancho Park Library) will feature a panel on “Writers of Color” – I’m really looking forward to it! Information on GLAWS events can be found HERE. (The first time I heard Gary Phillips speak, the very literary description “He had a face like granite and a voice like gravel” popped into my head. But he was interesting to listen to for the content of what he had to say as well!)

Sunday, I wrap up a freelance editing job by meeting with the author. I certainly worked to give him my due diligence. But I will admit that after doing a few of these editing jobs now, I really rather would be writing. Editing is not my “for joy” job, it seems.

I’m also being optimistic in making plans to write a paper for next summer’s Mythcon – which will be held in East Lansing, Michigan. The prospect of visiting again the state of my birth is singing a siren song to me. So, I’m going to submit my paper proposal this weekend.

And then there’s the usual of writing on various projects. Scribbling away here at ScribblerWorks.

About Sarah Beach

Now residing in Las Vegas, I was born in Michigan and moved to Texas when 16. After getting my Masters degree in English, I moved to Hollywood, because of the high demand for Medievalists (NOT!). As a freelance writer and editor, I find that Nevada offers better conditions for the wallet. I love writing all sorts of things, and occasionally also create some artwork.
