Wordles are… images made with words.
A.K.A. A great way to procrastinate.

So I made one. Or two. Or uh… yeah. Never mind.

Yah.
Or is it poor me?
I’ve queried, and got rejected.
Actually, I pretty much expected that.
My self esteem has never been the greatest.

However, I am not going to let it make me hide under a bushel somewhere. My list of agents (and publishers) isn’t at the bottom yet.
Still… It’s a kick in the teeth, expected or not, it still kinda smarts a bit.
Okay.
It smarts a lot.

The synopsis is done.

I’ve whittled it down to two pages, and the girls all said it’s good.
Query stage is imminent…!

I can’t say it has been a pleasant experience, but I finally am at the stage where it can go out.
And not a moment too soon.
Do other writers feel the way I do? Do they get sick of the story they love, because of the synopsis?

Val posted an article about Avon and the words "Paranormal" "Series potential" and "Romance" jumped in my face.

I’m going to spend some time going over their guidelines tonight.

If it fits… then I’ll give it a shot with Naiche or Vezien. Or both.

To say I’m terrified of querying is an understatement!

There is an interesting article over at Writer’s Digest, which chronicles what turns various agents off.

It’s well worth reading!
