Article Update: Diabetes Health & Eye Care
I’m being a good girl today. Just scratched out the first draft of the business article due next Friday and am on my way to type it up. Stopped online for a moment, and read a nice email from a friend who read my latest article at Diabetes Health.com and found it helpful. Hey, I’m here to serve!
It’s a break from my traditional fictional advice and work, but if you or anyone you know has been affected by diabetes, it’s absolutely fascinating to know that your eye doctor–yes, your eye doctor, not your GP, the endocrinologist or anyone else–can detect it first. It’s all to do with your blood vessels in the back of your eyes.
If you do stop by to visit the article, be sure to leave a comment there. They love comments and choose print articles based on popularity of online commenters. (Yep, shameless self promo, but it *IS* my blog!)
Curious? Here’s the link to the newsletter: Diabetes Health Newsletter, July 2008 (My story is the first one: Eyes on the Prize).
And here’s the link to the story itself: Eyes on the Prize: Early Detection and Management of Diabetes.
Completely fascinating stuff, even if you’re not diabetic. Who knew the eye docs could see inside your body?!
Oh, yeah, and on the article page, you can click on the cover of the latest issue featuring Jay Cutler (recently diagnosed) of the Broncos and check out another article on teenagers & insulin pumps by yours truly…(ok, enough promo!)
Back to my regularly scheduled writing work on my last real day of summer vacay. I’m so not ready for school….

It's pretty simple, really. I'm a writer who loves writing about writing, and sharing all the tricks of the trade with other writers. And when I'm not writing, I'm thinking about writing. I have a hunch you know what I mean :)
