What did I miss?

Hi all.  I'm back from the Great White North and my weeks of peace and writing in the woods.  The north was indeed great, and also very white.  It snowed so heavily my last day on Whidbey that I almost missed the ferry back to Seattle due to bad roads!

Alas, I made my flight on time and now I'm back in sunny LA, nose still to the grindstone on writing, but with traffic lights tossed in the mix.  I'll be sure to post pics of my trip to Hedgebrook and give some updates on local (LA) Hedgebrook events coming up.  In the meantime, please check out my interview on the Teen Writers Bloc.  Thanks to Dhonielle for the great questions.  Be sure to check out her round-up question for Black History Month:  The Color of Universal Experience, which asks (and answers) some fascinating questions of race in literature.  Read on!

Creative Spaces Interview

Ever wonder where writers work their magic... and do their rewrites, grind their teeth, and take naps?  Check out my interview on From the Mixed-Up Files of Jennifer Bertman.  Now's your chance to see the innner sanctum and the easy chair I like to slouch in when I'm between ideas. 

You won't believe the awesome list of authors that have let Jenn check out their "creative spaces."  I'm just giddy being in the same group as Zilpha Keatley Snyder! (I loved TheVelvet Room when I was a kid.  Ms. Snyder's books are the wallpaper to my childhood!) Thanks for the interview, Jenn.  What a fun way to start the new year!

Interview - Winged Victory

Hi Folks,

I've been MIA for a little while.  It seems when I hand in a draft I sink into an "after the party" blue period.  After months of concentration, I suddenly find it hard to focus.  It's what Spring break does to your GPA.  I've got plenty of little projects still on my plate, including a fun reading at Vroman's Bookstore last week. 

That said, not a lot of brillance on the blog lately.  So, instead, I suggest you go to a different blog for your dose of "Sherri said what?"  Today I am the featured interview on Winged Victory, a Women in Aviation Web Magazine.  Thanks to Barbara for tracking me down in the wilds of Virginia and following up with me on the wilds of the internet. 

Oh, and when you're done with that, deck your halls a little with the charming book trees at Booklicious.  I'm in love!  Enjoy!
