This week is  Oklahoma Women Bloggers  Inaugural April Celebrations Blogging Challenge. It has some pretty good topics for each day so I thought I'd give it a go. Today is the 2nd day and it's topic is: April 16–Stress Awareness Day: Blog about what stresses you out and what you do to bust up that stress It's Monday night. Everyone in my house is asleep ...except me. I tried. I went to bed with everyone else. I laid with my eyes closed, trying not to think, to worry, to stress. I tossed and turned. I tried to think of something non-stressful. Then it hit me...I hadn't done Tuesday's blog post for the April Celebrations Blogging Challenge. Perfect. Too perfect. I'd posted all of the topics on my Monday post, but hadn't really paid attention past the first one. You see, my hub and I own a trophy company and we happen to be smack dab in the middle of our busiest season...end of school awards. We have over 32 schools as clients who each have hundr...

This year I'm shepherding again for the annual OWFI Conference here in Oklahoma the 1st weekend in May. Which means, I get to be the personal assistant to some innocent, unsuspecting agent. Poor lady. *evil grin* (Yeah, yeah. It's closer to crazy than evil...This is what happens when you provide your own clipart!) Kidding, of course, but I do love this conference. It's such a fun way to network with other writers, make important connections to agents and editors, and sharpen the tools of the trade. I love that my husband can join in at one of the 2 banquets as well as getting to sit on the edge of my seat for yet another nail biting reveal of the contest results. I've entered 3 different categories this year, rather than just the 1 I entered last year. *Crossing fingers* (Isn't my Aidan the cutest model EVER?!)  I hope I can get an award this year. But even if not, I'll value the feedback just as much. How about you? Any conferences plan...
