Got a kick out of your post.
I kno...Hello Eric, <br /><br />Got a kick out of your post. <br /><br />I know rejection. <br /><br />Took me over 300 to 'find' my agent. <br /><br />300. <br /><br />I alphabetized them, I ripped them to shreds, I filed them, I made many paper airplanes that I made sure crashed and burned in the burn pile. Many were made into scratch paper. <br /><br />Many. <br /><br />Then the one came, it was actually a phone call. Looking for Mrs. Gilbertson...<br /><br />I've been with my agent now for years. <br /><br />You will too. <br /><br />You will find your agent/editor/publisher and it will be just right. <br /><br />Honestly. <br /><br />A MFA will only help. I suppose. <br /><br />Writing is the best way forward. <br /><br />I'm cheering you on. <br /><br />I am. <br /><br />And you will!<br /><br />Jay Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12243995588848851603noreply@blogger.com
