from sadness to excitement

Avalon decided not to publish my next book, but I did get offered a book signing in oct. very excited and can't wait it will be so cool. Now I just have to get the word out.

Time change

now on the publisher's webb sight it says it could be 10-12 months before I hear anything. So again I am just waiting in limbo. It makes me want to scream and cry at the same time. but what can ya do they are the ones who have the control at the moment. and I don't want to ruin my chances by contacting them. So I still wait and do my best to be patient.

escessive torture

I think that publishers were spys in a formers lives. They know better how to torture that anyone on earth. It is excruciating torture waiting to hear if they
are going to publish my book or not. I want so badly to give up but I am sticking to plan and not call before the eight months is over. It is so hard though. There is one good thing coming out of all this waiting, I am learning to be more patient. I may pull my hair out before I hear anything.

Still Waiting

Ok so I wonder if publishers make us writers wait to make us crazy. I am working on just being patient, but believe me it's hard not to just figure they either didn't get the manuscript, or they lost it. The thing is I know I'm a good writer and I know that this is what I'm suppose to do. And I've always believed that if I could just get someone to read my work then they would want to publish the work, the trick was just to get someone to read it. And now that they are it's hard to wait to hear back from them. Wish someone would call soon. I will give them until the middle of Jan and then I will call them. Wow! I will continue to pray and that I will get that call no matter which way they go. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

How many views.

So I posted my book trailer on youtube and then I started sending it out to all the friends I have on fb and so far it has 51 views. Cool, this is such a cool way to get people interested in the book. And I have my 17 year old to thank for it she is the one who showed it to me. She is very cool with my writing she likes the idea that I am a writer as she is such a avid reader. we are like to peas in a pod.

what do you do?

What do you do when you have a brain fart? sometimes I sit down and write and can't think of what to put on the page. It's very annoying because writing usually comes very easy to me. I don't like it when I have to struggle with the words to use. Use a prompt. have someome give you the first line of the story and go from there. It works I promise. Try it sometime.
