After a great weekend spent doing some of the things I'm supposed to do to find my dream literary agent and procrastinating over many that I didn't do, today is Monday and I'm back to reality! I realize that this is a process and I will allow myself to take it one day at a time but I'm hoping that dream literary agent (DLA) will come to me sooner rather than later. After all, you can't blame a girl for hoping.
So today I'll organize the copious amount of information I found at the bookstore and online and I'll begin to get my queries together. My goal will be to send some letters out by mid week.
The highlight of my weekend was meeting a wonderful Charleston writer, Mary Alice Monroe in person at her book signing. And... she even recognized me because we're facebook friends and she had noticed my blog. I was thrilled! She's a wonderful lowcountry writer, turtle lady and environmentalist. And a percentage of the proceeds of her sales for her latest novel, "Last Light over Carolina" are going to a local non-profit.
If that doesn't inspire me to keep going, nothing will. Thanks Mary Alice!
We're all behind you and have complete faith that your little lights gonna shine.
