Right ...Kathryn Stockett's of the world unite!<br /><br />Right here with you, Joann.<br /><br />Gearing up for the loneliness to come, the way I can't get the words out of my mind to focus on my kids, the way I'll feel guilty about how much time I"m going to give to this: But if I don't fight for it, NO ONE WILL.<br /><br />Writer conferences: first on the agenda.<br /><br />LOVE THIS.

I just cleaned the damn sheets in the bed that I am propped up in while reading your blog! Second of all, I would normally say (as I say every time I comment on your blog) "stop apologizing to us for not blogging! You don't owe us shit!!" But since I have practically abandoned Diaries of a Neurotic Non-Trad and began my new blog...the blog that I am hoping will make me famous some day (I know you understand because you are into the writing a book that turns into a Blockbuster moment), I have decided that you are not off the hook that easily. I totally am profiting off of this! I will forgive you for completely abandoning us loving and devoted followers if you stop check out my new site and promise you will follow me where ever I go because I don't want to lose you!!!! Deal? My blog is "My Life on the N-List" at http://thenlistblog.com. <br /><br />And by the way...I am super excited about the chance to read your book someday soon! If anyone can do it, you can!!!!!!! Sounds like you had some crappy luck at first but hike up those boot because you are going to do this! I totally can't wait!!!!!! xoxoxoxoxoNickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13877564312244508811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323746891853175496.post-77782474655958524062012-05-04T00:03:05.583-04:002012-05-04T00:03:05.583-04:00you got requests! how awesome is that??you got requests! how awesome is that??The Bipolar Divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05449793830455116918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323746891853175496.post-29280173500578217812012-05-03T14:57:49.805-04:002012-05-03T14:57:49.805-04:00Not only do I admire your writing, I admire your a...Not only do I admire your writing, I admire your ability to sleep while sustaining a grievous lip injury!Meg at the Members Loungehttp://designsbymeg.com/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323746891853175496.post-62053694741801444012012-05-03T00:28:01.492-04:002012-05-03T00:28:01.492-04:00Where else can you go for Lisa Rinna lips, brown r...Where else can you go for Lisa Rinna lips, brown recluse spiders, and Chris Brown?<br /><br />Nowhere.<br /><br />That's why you rock.

But, if that amazing writing KAthryn Stockett pushed through 60 rejections before someone woke up and realized the wonder of what she does with words, then I know there must be 60 agents who have now woken up and realized they better jump on something when they know it's good instead of waiting. I feel like you've already had some good ups with this process and that it won't be long now. You heard from 2 of the 4 dream companies! That's 50% and I'm no math whiz! That's pretty great stuff! And I love that the new person who replaced the other person also read it and bothered to contact you. That tells me you've got something there. It's just going to take a few.... Hang in there! I so cannot wait to read it!!!!JoAnnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548653968066971599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323746891853175496.post-51674783376411323742012-04-19T14:17:52.939-04:002012-04-19T14:17:52.939-04:00I woke up to an ugly bruise on my wrist.
