If it wasn’t clear already, here’s the official announcement: the blog’s going on hiatus for the foreseeable future. Too much school/work/writing going on to have any spare time for this. But to anyone with questions on the Scholastic A&W awards, feel free to message me or leave a comment, and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
Happy writing, everyone!
Anna

Thanks, Mariah! I’ll be sure to stop by your blog now and then.

Huzzah! I think my writing would wither up and die without your expert advice
By the way… are you doing NaNoWriMo this year? I am, and I’m scared to death!

Haha I don’t know that my advice is very expert, but I’ll take the compliment
I’m trying to do NaNo, mostly because I really regret not trying last year. I have all of… four hundred words written. This is not going well.

Did you finish?!?!?!

HAHAHA
I only wrote about three thousand words before I realized that it was impossible with my schedule.
I did write a twelve page paper this morning, though. Which is good since it’s due tonight.
How did you do?

I actually made it to 50,000 words! Trust me, my schedule was insane too. Luckily, some annoying characters wouldn’t get out of my head. The book isn’t finished yet, but it’s still exciting!

Yay! Congrats; I admire your ability to cram everything in. I will strive to do the same next year, but I have a feeling it won’t happen.

I’ve peeked at your stuff and it looks so awesome! You’re really creative abut writing and art, like me. I did come here at firstabout scholastic, but I promise to come back and look into your projects! I am wondering, tough, if Scholastic would take a project like mine, Titled ‘Trmellow’ on my pages list. Please visit my site and tell me what you think. Keep on creating!
(Don’t you love how I say this under your post titled hiatus?)

I’d love to get to your site, but I’m not sure how– you haven’t left a link…
And I’ll still get emails when replies are posted, so anyone interested in contacting me can certainly comment on this post!

Hello! I just had a quick question about the submission format (which might seem ridiculously obvious) – would you happen to remember if your submission was single or double-spaced?
Anna W. Waggener said,

Hi Ailey! I would definitely double space anything you plan to turn in. Other than cover-letters and queries, double spacing is standard in the world of publishing.
Thanks for stopping by, and let me know if you have any other questions!
