Nine contracts in six months is amazing!<br /><br />I'd love to enter the competition. It's a tough call but I think I'll have to go for the book... no the critique... no the book.

I am currently querying and waiting on a response on a partial request, so I am in the thick of a lot of rejection. <br /><br />I loved the key words lists! I can definitely relate to the rejection ones. I learned that the tone of the response tells you right away - anything too formal is usually a form rejection. If it starts with 'thank you for submitting', I know it's all over!<br /><br />I would love to enter the contest for the critique. And *gulp* I suppose it could be published on this blog.

Thanks for the offer to chip in Absolutely Kate but the Brewery at Milton (nearby) was flooded so they were letting us keep the beer, wine and spirits that came floating by. Retrieval rights!

I thank you most kindly ... and of course Denise for the intro and Christine (who's rolling her eyes now) for being the guest of honour who brought forth such a bash of distinction. Hope everyone chips in to help Denise on this enormous bar bill.

I couldn't agree more when it comes to having a great critique group. And they can be hard to come by. I'm not so much into e-pub, mainly because I've seen what gets published through e-pub (and no offense to anyone who does it) but my work almost never falls into the genres that get e-published. But that's okay. Every writer knows where they would fit in best.
