I have managed to do at least some writing, every day, for 32 days now. This is a first...and I'm rather pleased to have this momentum continuing.
This has included the I-have-not-the-slightest-clue-where-it's-going sci fi story, a hand-written fantasy story begun and worked on at Pennsic, and editing to Finder, the first sequel of The Source Chronicles.
Also in August, I submitted a paper query to one agent - rejected, and though I provided an envelope with enough postage to return the first 3 chapters sent, they kept that - which happens sometimes...and two e-mail queries - one rejection, still awaiting news following the other. Just putting the energy out there to the universe...PLEASE let them want to represent me, and sell my novel(s), and start this career path I want!!
So some good stuff to say. Positive posts are good!
Sleepy time, now.

If so, I will go through them sometime soon (I got distracted from it when you originally posted). Would it be alright if I copied out the text into Word and used "track changes" to comment that way?
