Zohar: Good afternoon. You cannot make a man by standing a sheep on its hind legs. But by standing a flock of sheep in that position you can make a crowd of men.I am from Mali and know bad English, give true I wrote the following sentence: "The biggest names in travel use priceline to sell last minute airline tickets, fill empty hotel rooms, cruises, and rental cars all at huge discounts."Thanks for the help :p, Zohar.

Newly Agent-Free

  • Pages Written Today: Mailed off a full ms.!
  • Where did I walk/ride? Post office and library
  • Treasures found: I found none, but Rob found a quarter
  • Affirmation of the Day: I write, therefore I must be alive.
A few weeks ago I parted ways with my agent.  I won't get into details.  My agent really is a very good and well thought of agent, but perhaps not the agent for me at this point in my career.

So, the dust has settled, and I'm back in business.  I just made my first submission--I sent a manuscript to Sourcebooks.  The acquiring editor there requested it some time ago (April) so it really was time!

I also had three orders to mail off to customers--2 vintage items and one Wear-A-Note notebook necklace.  I luuuuuuv getting orders and mailing them off.  It feeds my entrepreneurial spirit.  I also went to the library and checked out numerous YA books, since I am preparing to write one.  One of the books I checked out was HELL WEEK by my friend Rosemary Clement-Moore.  The first book in her series was PROM DATES FROM HELL and it was such a fun read, I'm looking forward to more.

That was my day, see ya tomorrow!  (I am committed to blogging every day for at least a week, and who knows?  Maybe I'll get back into the habit again.)

Thanks for stopping by,
Kara
