Writer's Diary

Thursday, March 31, 2005

95+. I've sent a copy off to a trusted reader and would like to send to my agent next week. Freaking about what's going to happen if she tells me it reeks, or worse if it seems like she isn't telling me that. Also, I need to wrack my brains for a second reader, because additional input would be ideal, but it needs to be someone who will actually tell me what needs to be fixed, which means, naturally, that such a person also needs to know what needs to be fixed. Creatively analytical and honest. I'm like Diogenes (did I spell that right? It looks wrong) with his lantern. Right now my brain is wrecked and I can't even think of anyone. I think I'm not happy with the ending.

I've been plotting out some ideas for another paranormal, but I'm working harder on ideas for another historical which I just think will be really cool. But I need to sit down and make some decisions about what I'm going to pitch where and to whom. Actually, now my agent can help me with that decision. Yay! Tired. So what's new.

Also, I used wracked, reeked and wrecked, all in the same entry and I did it on purpose because I am a writer and words are my life. Plus, my sense of humor is highly suspect.

Comments:
good idea, taking time out to sit and reflect.
