Sweet dreams

Good night all. I will be back in about 8 hours before I have to go to work. Just to update everyone. I worked out for 48 minutes tonight. I also submitted to another agency for my manuscript. I am keeping my fingers crossed. See everyone in the morning Sign in to see full entry.

Glad Monday is almost over

Went to work this morning. I was hoping that the storm that came through this weekend would cancel work, but it didn't. I went in, I did some work. I completed a home visit.

Somebody suggested to me that I should do something about encouragement for writers. It got me to thinking.

Football sucks!

I am watching the Bills game right now, and it is crappy the play calling that is going on right now.

Rejected

I already have an email back from the agent. They feel that I could find better representation some place else. It was a nicely worded rejection. Oh well. I am not done.

Good morning

I can't sleep anymore. I called in sick to work today because my ear still hurts and is ringing. Oh well. Another day that I get to work on my writing. I am supposed to work an overnight tonight, but I think I am going to call and see if anyone else is interested in the shift because of the way that... Sign in to see full entry.

I have several I am going to add to Helium tomorrow. Then I am headed out to look for more places to write at... Sign in to see full entry.
