Well that put a fitting end to my work day. Think I will take a St. John's Wort capsule and crawl off to bed. :))
But it was an article worth reading. I am determined not to lay in a slush pile anywhere no matter what. I can always convince myself that everything I write is lame and burn all my manuscripts again.

Hi Vickie,

Read the article, very depressing stuff, very funny also. Oh well, slush pile here I come. I sure wish some more reviews would come in, I want to start using them to promote Buttercups. But, I am still waiting for a "flash of inspiration" about the cover letter and the synopsis. I am still clueless about how to write about this book. ARGh!!

smiles and blessings, Kitty

Kitty, I would definitely call it an inspirational. I'm going to email you something.
