I'm afraid to let anyone read it, anyway, not to mention the sex scenes that mean I don't want anyone I know to read it.<br /><br />Maybe I should just bury it in the backyard.K.C.

With my 2 MG books I queried so many agents there'd be none left if I struck them off the list.Cate Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634397106201021055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034944370161032319.post-2150967579358640142010-02-16T07:20:28.181-05:002010-02-16T07:20:28.181-05:00BT--But you've been editing an anthology, whic...BT--But you've been editing an anthology, which is far more work all put together than anything I've been doing.<br /><br />I don't know if CWP would be interested in publishing any of my other stuff, frankly. It's a little bit outside their interest range. I'm shopping The Weredeer and Evil Outfitters to small publishers right now, though. *heavy sigh*<br /><br />Natalie--I'm actually not sure how that one got to be such a long manuscript and I'm still not sure I'm happy with it. It feels self-indulgent to write so much on one project.K.C.

Maybe if you got one or two out there, it would be picked up for a second version by a publisher and then the agent would follow...<br /><br />Just a thought.BThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15170193722932454605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034944370161032319.post-44463602542137719472010-02-15T20:17:06.565-05:002010-02-15T20:17:06.565-05:00I hope so!

And I'm not really a writing machine, considering I haven't written a short story since last September and I've only chipped off about 18,000 words on the romance novel in two weeks.K.C.

(*he says with envy*) Eventually one of your works will catch the eye of an agent (and then perhaps they will be interested in the other stuff that's gathering dust).Alan W.
