<span class="bl-value-excerpt"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #272100; font-weight: 400;">It’s not easy to overcome disappointment and hurt, but I’ve found a couple ways to manage the pain: </span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #272100; font-weight: 400;">1. Scream. Vent. Cry. Sulk. Get drunk.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #272100; font-weight: 400;">2. Stop screaming, venting, crying, sulking. Get sober.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #272100; font-weight: 400;">3. Accept.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #272100; font-weight: 400;">4. Forgive</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #272100; font-weight: 400;">5. Move on</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #272100; font-weight: 400;">6. Work, smile, laugh, play...</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #272100; font-weight: 400;">7. And before you know it, you’ve forgotten the disappointment, and the reason it came across your path...</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"> <b> Then go shopping...</b></span></span></div>

really enjoyed this story. I fell in love with Michelle, lusted after Erik, and

almost palpable, and the story is structured very nicely. All the plot threads

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
I finally released my third short story, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=ntt_athr_dp_sr_pop_1?_encoding=UTF8&search-alias=digital-text&field-author=Ana%20E.%20Ross" target="_blank">Mark of a Good Man</a> on Amazon Kindle. This story took a little more time for me to write since it is longer than the two previous stories. It fell short of 20,000 words, and can be viewed as a novella. Now it's time for me to concentrate on dusting off "The Doctor's Secret Bride", the first in my Billionaires' Brides Series. TDSB will be released in May 2012.</div>

<div class="post-body entry-content" id="post-body-1095928691250199306" style="line-height: 1.4; width: 500px;">My first upload will be a short story. It's good practice for the longer novels, as my friend Stephanie Queen suggested. So I formatted one of my 6k word short stories today--got rid of the tabs, changed the line spacing, and did some editing. Still learning the ins and outs of this indie thing, but am very excited about the process.<div style="clear: both;"></div></div><div><br />

Recently got excellent rejections from two editors, who thought my characters were adorable, my premise great, my style amazing, but "after much consideration we are sorry to have to pass." Sigh.. Today I created my Amazon KDP, B&N Pubit, and Smashwords accounts. That'll give me incentive to format the first book in my series, get a cover, and editor in place, and launch by mid February, 2012. I'm off to Indiepub Land, folks. See you at the MarketPlace. Hope you'll join me for a cup of tea, or coffee.<div style="clear: both;"></div></div><div><br />

Rewriting two is absolutely insane. But I gotta do it--some minor changes need to take place. I'm blogging; don't know who's listening, but if you are out there, give me a cheer on... I'll be going back and forth between 'An Unfavorable Union' and 'An Uncouth Proposal'.<br />
<br />
DAY ONE: An Unfavorable Union. -- Chapter One. Byrce and Kaya meet. She learns that her orphan nephew and nieces are penniless, and he learns that she has full custody and is planning to take them away. Uhhhh... Sparks Fly. Tempers flare. Harsh words are spoken. And last nerves are stepped on...</div>Ana E Rosshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03462182522252226404noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890848798421424423.post-76382839825054012612011-08-29T07:12:00.000-07:002011-08-29T07:12:55.058-07:00Back to School<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Yep, the summer is over for me. It doesn't feel as if it really began, anyway. I worked/wrote all the way through it. Very positive results though. Got one book finished, edited, and submitted. Got my website up and running, and lots of other writing-related items crossed off my long list.<br />
<br />
I shall miss sleeping late, and/or getting up whenever I want to. Sigh!<br />
<br />
To all you other dedicated teachers out there:<br />
