Tha...I'm so glad to know you'll keep going. That you captured an agent to begin with speaks volumes for your writing. You've got talent. You can only get better!<br /><br />I had an agent for my first novel, and after it was rejected by 8 publishers, she more or less forgot about me. I had faith in my abilities though, so I dusted myself off, considering it a learning experience, and wrote another novel. I found another agent, and this one rocks! <br /><br />You will too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-551608342749773751.post-30311930752830003042010-08-19T11:57:10.781-07:002010-08-19T11:57:10.781-07:00That means so much to me Lisa, thank you!

I truly believe things are "meant to be" and that this only means you have a different road you are supposed to take. I'm sure you'll have no problem not only getting a new agent, but actually learning from the whole experience and making your writing better because of it.Lisa Gail Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03648323153868702165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-551608342749773751.post-72384786528859253502010-08-19T10:44:04.304-07:002010-08-19T10:44:04.304-07:00I hope so too Candyland.
