A Series of Writing Highs: Pure Joy and Book Cover Designer

My little sister's short story that I am writing for her is now at 17 pages, single spaced:  "La Bruja del Barrio Loco".  Guess it's going to be a novella.  Oops.  Right now, the narrative is a little rushed, but it will be a great revising practice.  I also have to flesh out Cindy a little more, and like always I added another story within the story, multiple sub-plots.  That is one of my best and worst features.  I always got called out on it in all of my creative writing classes, but I really think it's a Latino thing.

Anyway, I also ran into an old friend who is willing to do the cover of a novel.  She is willing to do it for free, that gem of a human being.  She actually already drew something I love using her ex's make-up.  It looked haunted with faded colors and perfect for this piece, so I am going to send her the story link when I and done editing and revising.  Who knows, she may be an ideal reader too!  (I haven't asked my other friend.  I will, soon.  Been kind of embarrassed to do so.)

Here's to more writing highs and friends who make time for you.
