Does anyone remember the song by Don Henley, The End of the Innocence?
It pops in my mind ever time I’m about to press send and stop
myself because I find an error in my query or my computer does crazy things to
my manuscript.
But it’s done, over. Today is the day. No more stalling. I know my manuscript is
ready. I’m confident and excited. I do sound innocent, don’t I? Maybe I'll send it tomorrow...
I figure this a perfect day to start my blog--the day before
sending out my first queries. My mind is fresh, I am anticipating all the
wonderful things in my future and most of all…I haven’t had any rejections
yet!! That’s so cool. They have to all love my manuscript, right?? At least I
can be hopeful.
So nice meeting you at the SCBWI Writer's Day yesterday! Best of luck with your recently sent query letter...I hope to keep in touch throughout your journey toward becoming a published children's author!
