Well dang, got a rejection on a requested full manuscript of The Shape of Her Heart. HOWEVER, they said that my writing was strong, intelligent, and that my plot was very original. But that the characters and narrative didn't grab them enough to want to buy it. DANGIT. However, I will latch on to the first part of that and keep sending it out. I love my characters - they're very distinctive, and I really dig that book so I hope I'll find someone who digs it too. Maybe I'm weird enough that it will take someone equally weird to want to buy it. lol. Can't decide if that's a good thing or a bad thing. I revel in my weirdness, yet if only two people in the entire United States will like my book, I'm in trouble, lol.
Changing the topic, I have started to send out Dreams are for Lovers so we'll see how people react to that one. I'm so slow to send this stuff out because I do try to polish the hell out of it first. I'd hate to send something out that would have sold if only I'd gone through it one more time. Anyway, having stuff out there always makes me feel positive. Onward and upward!
