5 on Friday

**

1. No. We haven’t watched Frozen 8,976,345 times since last Tuesday. That’d just be silly.

2. Love this post on writing reviews from The Write Conversation.

3. Trying to make a serious game plan about how to get to conference in September. It’s a lot of money, and I need my manuscript finished. Toying with the idea of self-publishing a serial novel to get me to conference. Snort.

4. So this book from one of my favorite authors came out this week. You better believe that I picked it up on opening day just like the “Little Olive*” I am. (and it’s currently on my nightstand in my TBR pile urging me to hurry up and get not busy so I can read it . . . GAAAA!)

5. Prologues are baffling me. What are your thoughts on prologues?

*Little Olive = Lauren Oliver fans

    I’ve decided prologues are a preference, C. I think if you think your prologue is right for the story you should keep it BUT before you query or submit chapters to agents, research what they like. Maybe they hate prologues and you would send them your first chapters without the prologue, then later on you can ask them about your prologue. I’m keeping mine…..hopefully that’s the right move.
