Hello again all! My book is complete, yay!!! I have to find an agent, booo. I swear I would rather write the next book than do this, but that is part of the whole process. So now my self-doubting personality has to pull itself together and try to work up enough self confidence to try to get someone willing to to sell my books to a publisher. Everyone says go out there and toot your own horn. Huh, easier said than done. Yes, my book has done really well on public bookshelf, and I am extremely thrilled about that, but if you are like me and have self-esteem issues, you make excuses for why it may be doing well. It is a small website, it is new, people are trying to be nice, you know all the normal things.
But I know I have to do this, so I am working on my query letter now. I have offered to pay my hubby to find me an agent, but he pointed out the obvious fact that we share all the money that comes into the house, so that was a failure. lol
Just a little note if you are an agent, call me!!! I am easy to work with, no big ego tripping with me :) Just playing.
Okay now that I have whined, what is going on with you guys? Besides the whole agent thing, I have been baking, cleaning the house and otherwise getting everything ready for Christmas. It is hard to really get in the spirit because the weather hasn't been right, but I am going to have the kids help me get the tree setup this weekend.
B, my 11 year old just came home from school and told me he is the student of the month!!!! Yay, I am so proud. He had an ice cream party today and they sent him home super hyper. The way he is bouncing around, I should send him out and make him do a few laps so he will settle down.
Well,I am going to go back to work on the query letter and hope for the best.
You guy take care of yourself. Talk to you later.
