The
critiquing world begins. I’ve been diving into critiques for other writers, so
they will critique my work while Jennifer has been in cahoots with Age of Eden
edits. She is working on our newest query letter. Thank God, she isn’t leaving
it up to me.
I
find myself wondering, what in the heck do these literary agents want? What are
they looking for? I know it is all subjective and about the right time, place,
etc. But dang, I’m not getting any younger, neither is Jennifer. Seriously
though, we have been head over heals in editing, critiquing, and writing It’s
all very exhausting. I wish I could snap my fingers and everything could be
done, but Rome wasn’t built in a day. I hope it gets pretty soon, though.
I’ve
been spending time rewriting my Reapers book: The First 22. I’m having to
change a few things around but luckily I only have 25,000 more to go, lol.
Better
get back to this so called life. TTYL friends. And if you haven’t already
looking into this years writer’s conferences, you should do so.
