Remembering the merry-go-round
(originally posted at livejournal on 7/20/06)
Even though I keep falling off the merry-go-round, I keep getting back on. Somedays, I think I am just crazy to fall off, get back on, fall off, get back on, fall off, get back on...
I sent an e-query yesterday to a wonderful agent for my most recent mid-grade novel, and I got a request this morning for the full.
You see, I am not afraid of rejections. I have a drawer FULL of them, and they haven't killed me yet.
So I keep getting back on this whirly twirly thrill-of-a-lifetime merry-go-round hoping that someday, I will find my way to the middle, stand tall, with arms lifted toward the sky and then, yes, THEN, I will scream at the top of my lungs
I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
