Alright, I sat at this computer for six hours yesterday revising the crap out of my manuscript. Finally my eyes had enough and told they would be going on strike if I didn't stop. Time to continue today.
I haven't heard from any other agents yet and frankly, today is one of those days where I feel discouraged (I don't think this killer cold is helping my mood, either). I think I have a great story, I can totally see a market for it, I had tons of young adults I used to work with read it to see if it was worth publishing and they said they'd buy it in a second, and yet here I sit. Am I wasting my time? Am I going to end up devastated? I keep reminding myself of all the writers out there who got rejected tons and tons of times, but on days like today, all I can think is, "Yeah, but they eventually made it." *sigh*
Yes, today is definitely a case of the what-ifs. But I got to keep going, or I will hate myself for it. That and my husband refuses to let me quit ;-).
Off I go to revise some more. I really hope for some good news soon.
