ThanksI need to send it pretty soon. The contest is only open for an hour.
ETA: Kathleen - that's your blog? I only just now noticed the fact.
Sent it back.
Good luck Holen!
BTW, guys--just thought I'd share that I've LOVED every interaction with offering agent so far. She's quick, approachable, and just super, super nice. Plus, when she interned at Bl*ss she worked with Shady Lane, and Shady only has awesome things to say about her.
(you know, in case anyone might want to add her to their query list, wink, wink)
ETA: Okay, seriously, they need to change that grammar rule. I *know* "anyone" and "their" doesn't match, but really---how stupid does it sound if I say his/her? I'm keeping it that way. Grumble, grumble.
Could i get a rep with the name please? I've been trying not to be soo nosy but now I must know! hehe!
Thanks

Stop, drop, and plot? Yup.
Well, I started off with two. Then had second thoughts. I wanted four so I could kill one off about 2/3rds of the way through, which would leave an uncomfortable love triangle in the midst of trying to find their way out of an alternate world.

Cool that you're making it work!
I had three angel pov's in TG when I first started. One agent feedback was to focus in on two, rather than three, so I axed one. I hated it cuz Rafe is my favorite angel really--an 80's fan, hilarious football playing, angel, lol. BUT he's still in the book a whole lot. And who knows if it goes to a sequel, maybe he'll get to narrate again.
Thanks, Steph
Also, Kathleen, I need to be better about reading signatures
I had been talking to Kate on the boards for weeks before realizing she wrote one of my favorite blogs. Complete fail.

Morning Peeps!
How goes it? Well, I guess I should say afternoon, lol. I plan on writing and reading, mainly reading. Got some household chores like shampooing carpets, ugh!
So happy things are going well with your offering agent, Hound. It's so important that you feel you can work comfortably with them.

Hey, hound, sorry I missed the big announcement but congratulations!!! I am not surprised at all, of course. I think I know who the agent is but ya wanna rep me again, just in case?
Evening everyone! Only on for a second. I was kidnapped by the husband and the son to go to see this amazing tapestry in Bayeux, all about William the Conqueror. My husband is a history buff so he was well pleased. My little man was in Heaven since he was born in England and cosiders himself Franco British. Yes, he only thinks he's American when someone points out that we are winning something. *rolls eyes* Anyway I should do a bit of writing before turning in, because I managed to finish the first Chapter of Haunted Orphan and now I'm itching to know what is going to happen next. LOL Cause I'm sad like that LOL.
In the piece I am working on now, I had three POVs, and just the other day, axed one as I found 3 was too many. So I have one as my MC and one as a very strong female character.
Oh, if you were talking about multiple viewpoints, in that case I'm only running one POV through the whole book. Pretty linear.

Ahh, that makes it a little better. However, dialogue between more than two people is hard for me to write.

Hello - Happy day all!
We finally have about a 1/2" of snow - so we're celebrating and having chili.
Anyone writing today? tonight? FNW maybe?
I read most of Eclipse at work... I forgot how much I enjoy Jacob when he gets all pumped up towards the middle and declares his feelings. I love that little puppy.

And I'm going to reread Eclipse closer to film time. Yes, it is awesome when the pup grows a pair! LOL
You sent it though? Awesome. I remember how awesome the last draft I read of your query was.
yay! hehe I sent mine too and I'm kinda scared. But no pain, no gain, right?
Yours was, as I recall, also awesome.
Yes. Bleary-eyed, I stumbled to the computer and hit send.
You helped loads to make my query better!
Indeed! *high five* And good luck!yay! hehe I sent mine too and I'm kinda scared. But no pain, no gain, right?
