Merry-go-round...


Still here,, still writing and always editing; or so it seems.

Does it not feel like a merry-go-round sometimes?

VP wants first fifty pages and how many times can I possibly go over my ms?
Well, let me tell you; every time I go over it I find another spelling mistake or a paragraph that is too long, etc etc.
Fresh eyes, I've heard. Yes I have done this also, but we learn more every day and with this new found knowledge, we find more booboo's. Sigh.


I once said, life is like a fun park full of rides.
Roller coasters- for the ups, downs full of different emotions. Think about that ride and what emotions you feel.
Then there's the merry-go-round, where it feels as though your not getting anywhere.
The bumper cars, you're trying to get out of the rut your in, but some thing's always getting in your way.
The tunnel of love; one of my favourites. Intimate, the world seems to disappear and it's just the two of you.

I could go on, but I think you get the picture.


I love my life. I know right now I feel like I'm not getting anywhere, with my dream of becoming an author, but I'll trudge on.

Determination is the key.


I guess the moral is to keep writing, huh.


Happy Writing, everybody.

Oh Kerri! Well... let me say you are worlds ahead of me on the road to publication - at least you have a completed manuscript!!!! I know that isn't much comfort - but think how far you have come, and you can see the light at the end of the tunnel - just that some damn b*&#$%#d has turned it off!!!

It is there - keep going... you are on the home stretch (of sorts - I know that the race starts in different ways from here!)... KEEP ON WITH IT!

Congratulate yourself on having something TO edit!!!

Hugs,

Amanda

It's late and I want to offer words of wisdom but they're all coming out babbled. Just wanted to say Good Luck in the VP. Perhaps, it's time just to let it go... and cross your fingers hoping for the best!
