So Close….
Author: Brandi SchmidtOct 13
Book Update!
Today I finished Chapter 21! I am so close to the end of my first novel. I have about 4 chapters left and can taste the victory. Of course there is editing and polishing, but it will be DONE!
I can’t believe it! I have even started to draft my first query letter, which is totally cool! I have already found an agent that looks good. I can’t wait to get it to her, I just want to make sure it’s complete first. I will keep you all up to date on the book, it should be done by the end of the month!
I also wanted to post a picture of my husband and daughter, my son is not pictured. They are so cute!! I am a very blessed woman.

Getting Inspiration
Author: Brandi SchmidtOct 9
Ugh! It’s been a long few weeks. Time keeps ticking on and I am still on Chapter 21 of True Sight. It’s coming along great, just slow. I wanted to share something that has been so inspirational for me. I joined a local St. Louis writers group through MeetUp.com.
We are called STL Writers Connect and have a website at www.stlwritersconnect.com. Go see us! there is a video on the home page, pictures and lots of info. We meet every other Tuesday at Boarders and have a great time sharing and supporting each other.
The group is so great! They are always positive and have become great allies in completing my manuscript.

My question for you: “Where do you get you inspiration?”
