It's true that the quest for my DLA (dream literary agent) isn't the easiest process, but knowing that there will be a successful resolution keeps me going. The other thing that keeps me going is the "one day at a time" approach that is so successful with a lot of the 12-step and rehab programs. Not that I'm an addict... although I do find my self thinking constantly about my novel and getting it published!
Finding my DLA one day at a time allows me to start each day with a positive, fresh perspective and most importantly to NOT get discouraged. Right now I'm working on writing a "long" synopsis for an agent who has expressed interest in reading my manuscript (I know!). But pulling together this 3 to 5 page document is proving to be very challenging. What to include, what to leave out. How to evoke just the right amount of emotion to ensure agents "feel" the love story in "Lowcountry Love Story."
