Welcome! With this site, I hope to give more attention to my writing as well as to keep information on hand in a way that is impossible on a blog. Please get comfortable, grab a glass of something you like, and enjoy looking around!
So, it's been a little while since I updated this site, and I apologize. It's been a busy and exciting year with a big chunk of writer's block in the middle of it.
In January, I entered my fantasy short story "The Coral Temple" in small publisher
Buddhapuss Ink's Mystery Times Ten Contest for young adult mystery stories. It won first place! If you're interested in ordering a copy of the anthology, which features my story along with the other nine winners', from Amazon.com, click
here. If you would like to order a signed copy directly from me, please email me at cecilia [at] ceciliadominic [dot] com (you know what to do with the formatting).
The blogs have been somewhat quiet. On
The Random Oenophile, I'm working on catching up from the summer's adventures including attending the 2011 Wine Bloggers' Conference in Charlottesville, Virginia. We also tasted through North Carolina on that trip. The posts are getting up slowly but surely. I've also decided to take a slightly new direction with it and have outed myself as a psychologist. Yep, I've discovered my niche: psychowine. Okay, maybe not quite, but I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes.
On
Cecilia's Random Writings, I'm working on promoting the book, but I'm also going to take a slightly more psychological tack there. I'm also going to share some of the cool, random stuff I learned on my travels.
