Can’t feel too down today – woke up to these!
A mention of The Robot Scientist’s Daughter in my big local paper, The Seattle Times! (PS Seattle folks – head to Open Books in Wallingford to get a copy of my book! Or I can send you a signed copy!)
And a very nice review of The Robot Scientist’s Daughter in The San Francisco Book Review. They say that “The Robot Scientist’s Daughter is a treasure trove of insight and personal reflection.”
Thank you, Seattle Times and San Francisco Book Review! Plus, I wrote six poems in the last two days. So, it may be that feeling sick and discouraged (see my previous post) makes me write more poetry? Weird, right?
Speaking of discouraged, if you got a rejection letter from Breadloaf this week, don’t feel bad – read this blog post by Kelly Davio! She will make you feel better and give you a plan to move ahead!
