Back to working hard on my manuscripts, attending conferences and all that good stuff.
Please pray for me. I have a pitch session with an agent this next weekend and I want her to sign me so bad I can taste it. I know I shouldn't put all my eggs in one basket, but I have. I can't help it. I'm getting tired, you know? Writing is hard work (contrary to popular belief) and sometimes I wonder if I want to keep persuing that iluusive word . . . publication.
I spend hours writing, editing and working on my craft. I just want it to pay off with fame and fortune. Not that that is the reason I write, but hey, the perk wouldn't hurt.
We'll see what happens. I'll let you know!

I'll keep all my fingers and toes crossed for you. I wish you much success in your endeavors. :)
Good luck!! Fingers crossed for you! I hope to see you at the Conference! :)
It was great meeting you on the A-Z. Keep us up to date with what's happening and good luck!

-Melissa,
I'm glad the A to Z challenge is over, too. I didn't participate. There was no way that I would have had the time to keep up with that type of schedule. I always felt like I was intruding whenever I stopped by yours or another's blog during the month. I know that is silly, but...
Now as to your request, I am praying for you because I remember the twenty years of dreaming that finally came to fruition for me: being published. My advice to every writer in your position is to do everything you can that way when you are old and gray you will have no regrets.
I have one novel published and sometime this year should have it's sequel published as well. However, should I never have another one, it will be fine because I tried by best.
Good luck. *fingers crossed*

Sending lots of prayers and good wishes for you! We all understand how you feel - it isn't ABOUT the money and fame, but those things aren't NOTHING either! We all want to feel that glow of recognition for all the effort and the time and the dreams. It matters. Look forward to seeing what happens and reading more of your postings. It will be good to get back to normal now the challenge is over!
Keeping fingers, toes, ankles, pretty much everything I have crossed for you. Good Luck!!
Having a theme has made it easier to blog every day. I had an easier time staying on task for A to Z than I had for the blogging month in October.
Good luck with your pitch session.
Yah!! Congrats on finishing the A to Z! It's been a hard month but fun overall.
And, good luck with your pitch! I shall be thinking positive thoughts for you. ;-))
Best of luck with your pitch! Would be great to see smashing success come your way. It's been a pleasure getting to know you through the blog challenge and I'll still be here reading your blog after it's over. Best wishes :)

Good luck with the pitch session. And congrats to finishing the challenge!
It's been a great month hasn't it? I've now embarked on another challenge, but this one focuses on my writing. I'm also chasing that elusive fame and fortune from words :)
Sending prayers and good vibes your way. Hard work does pay off so keep at it.
Yippee! It was one long month, but so much fun, too!

Wow, I go away for a couple weeks and have a wild adventure at sea aboard the USNS Comfort and you are back here becoming a writer and blog extra-ordinaire. Good Job! Melissa. Hook me up with the next blog challenge and if I stay in the country I will try to participate too. Lisa
