Some days it's kind of like whiplash

So yesterday, completely out of the blue, I get asked to be a judge for a novel writing contest, sponsored by the East Texas chapter of RWA. Why? Honestly, I don't really know. But figured that since it's only a few entries, I'll give it a whirl.
This was followed by being contacted by MySpace by a writerly acquaintance who just set up a new lesbian/bi women's arts and writing site. She wants me to pull together an all about me type thing so I can be a featured author.
Keeps it lively. :-)

Very cool. Judging a novel contest sounds like it could be very interesting. (Although I had a professor who claimed it was just tedious.)

Fortunately,RWA contests are a generally a sample chapter and a book synopsis, limited to 25 pages or so. I don't really have time to breath, let alone read several full novels in 2 weeks. This was the big selling point, from my standpoint. :-)
