I'm Home
I'm back and it's wonderful! I can't wait to delve into your blogs. :-)
The winner of the drawing is Christina Berry. Congratulations. Send me your snail mail and I'll get A Gift of Grace out to you. :-)
On the writing front, I received a rejection on a partial. All the more stimulus to get to work on my revisions.
How's writing going for you?

You are so mature re: rejection. God will honor you for your excellent attitude. I would love some of that to rub off on moi!
Alas, I have been spending so much time working on my proposal that I've done very little writing. I did start a new devo last night about pack rats, but it's barely conceived. Thanks for asking!

I've had so many rejections now, plus I realize that it doesn't mean the end of my hopes, so I think that helps. I have a lot of irons in the fire too. :-)
Working on your proposal is as important as the writing itself, imo. :-) Sounds like you've been busy!
And that's a great attitude about the rejection and revisions. That's the kind of outlook that'll see you published in the not to distant future. :-)
Sorry about rejection. Always a bummer!
I'm working on revisions to a couple of short stories and starting a new one.
Ahhh, revisions. Have fun with those.
Are you making good progress for getting ready for ACFW? I still have to buy my plane ticket! My hubby keeps checking prices trying to get the best deal!
Okay, I promise, I'll start submitting in the fall so that I can join your rejection party of revisions. Sorry to hear about it, though. But you are such a smart person about how to handle them. I'm taking lessons from you!
Kind of. LOL I haven't made a one sheet or anything. I've just been very slowly doing revisions on the book. I know I need to get moving but I have a very strong urge to procrastinate. Bleck.
You better get your tickets! :-) They might get pricier the closer the time comes. I'm SO excited!!! I'll bet you are too. :-)
Girl, it was more than warm. It was so hot that I almost couldn't handle it. Even the water was disgustingly warm in the afternoon. But we still had fun.
:-)
It does sting a little, but it helps that it's an older manuscript. I'm sure when I start querying Bridegroom's I'm going to be much less laidback about rejections.
That's so true. Getting out of routine can really mess things up. Hope you can slide back into things. :-)
Welcome home! We missed you. :)
Congratulations, Christina. It's always fun winning a book.
Blessings,
Susan
I've gotten so many I'm probably just calloused, not smart. But you might not even face any, if things go super well at ACFW. *wink*
Vacations are awesome. :-) Maybe you should take one. LOL
So, when's the next trip? *grin*
I love your positive out-look, Jessica. I hope the revisions go well.
I actually want to do some writing, but am having an awful time finding, um, TIME! Previously I would write a lot after the kids went to bed at night, but now I want to go to bed before they do! Need to find a new plan.
I find myself wanting to go to sleep early too. I used to be such a night owl! Good luck finding the time. ;-)
*hugs* about the partial. :D
