I can't think of one writer I know (seasoned and non-seasoned) that doesn't get rejected sometimes, or receive a slew of them before finally turning that acceptance corner. <br /><br />I know you're a smart, talented woman with a burning passion in her heart to write. You will write regardless, and that's what's most important. *if that at all sounded condescending, it wasn't meant to*<br /><br />Sending you a big warm and loving hug.neve blackhttp://neveblack.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987049796144967029.post-19055724344269084382009-10-08T04:34:55.237-04:002009-10-08T04:34:55.237-04:00:: Big hug :::: Big hug ::Emeraldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00819037087504004841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987049796144967029.post-34465336198670024682009-10-07T16:03:53.215-04:002009-10-07T16:03:53.215-04:00Hey everyone - thanks.

Sorry I've been so quiet - I'm actually quite swamped with "real life" work (my other writing persona) and I keep finding myself being pulled in more than one direction. It's kinda strange to have all these thoughts in my head an no time to spit them out. Arrrrrggggghhhhh.
