You are not going to believe this.....

If you've read my blog, you know I've had a lot going on. (Yes, Carrie I am trying to breath.) Yesterday was even more fun. Joe called me to tell me that someone driving a company truck smashed in the back of his truck. This turned into a marathon of insurance stuff and rental car fiasco. By the end of the day, I was ready to run away. I keep wondering when things will calm down. *Sigh*
In all the chaos, I haven't even mentioned the comments I got back for The Stroke Of Midnight contest. Considering that this was an inappropriate entry (remember, I missed the word "Erotic" LOL) and it was really raw, the judges were kind. A lot of the comments were things I have corrected. Some of the comments were extremely helpful. One of the judges was a former journalist and had trouble with some of the details about my heroine (who is supposed to be a column writer.). I got valuable information from that judge. Most of the comments were encouraging. My characterization is good. My story has possibilities. Even some of my grammer issues weren't to serious.
I think that "Hidden Grief" will be assigned to a drawer. I obtained invaluable experience and feedback that will make the next manuscript better. Of course, that's assuming that the agent I sent "Hidden Grief" doesn't request more. LOL.
