Why CROSSING CHALK?

Okay, well if you like my new blog name (hello? anyone out there?) I can't take credit for it. I have to thank my remarkably diverse-thinking critique group. We were all brainstorming titles for my current middle-grade novel, when one of them fired off an entire list. I mean, a LIST!

Next thing you know, I have a new title for my MG novel...

CROSSING CHALK

And I liked it so much that I decided to rename my blog.

This is just one of many reasons to find a critique group and stay dedicated to it. For me, it's like having three editors I trust pick my work apart once a month. As a writer, can you ask for anything more?

  1. I dig the blog title. Found you via Ben Esch's blog. I only say this in case there's some sort of referral reward program like the window companies have. If there is, I expect Ben to split it with me.
