Writer's Diary

Thursday, September 30, 2004

Not much news to report. Have been notebooking ASH. Feels odd and vaguely idle of me not to be typing away, but if I were to do that now, I'd only have to start over when I figure things out. Some key chapters can stay, the rest has to go. Since CK is on vacation, it's maybe too early to know on the f/p thing though I understand he has my proposal with him. Could be rumor. There's competition and since every other writer out there is better known than I am, I worry about my chances. Who (but me) would think a HR writer can do fp? It's strange to have a idea that's so cool but I can't work on it until I know if it's on its lonesome or what. On the other hand, I think my chapters and synopsis are good. But it's not just my opinion that matters.... Sigh.

Agent-wise, quite surprisingly, my last email query did not get instant rejection, we've emailed a bit and I've sent material to her. On the other hand, I've seen her client list. Not much hope, really, I think. Didn't get to the P.O. Box today, but as of yesterday still no word from the outstanding bunch. On The Rake, I believe there are two weeks left, if the representation of the proposal in lieu of the MS is valid. Stressed at work. Ick. Got an email from someone today wanting to know about the Rake. Gotta love those fans. All five of them! But they're getting impatient. Me, too, actually.
