Celebrating the small things

It's short and sweet today my beautiful guys and dolls. I'm working on a submission request that's got my nerves on fire! I'm so excited I can't think of anything else right now. I HAVE to write a synopsis so I can send my request over to a marvelous agent from #PitMad.

Yes, that's a celebration!! WooHoo!!!!!

What about you? What are you celebrating today??

Thanks to Vikki, who started this whole blog hop of happiness:)

    Ink, that's great! The synopsis is always so tough. I'm wrestling with the one for my third book right now.

      I agree! I think it's something every writer should work on while actually writing the manuscript. Just tweak as you write...

      Evil is right! It's something I don't mind doing, but getting it "right" is a different story!

    Yay! I'm working on a synopsis, too, and it's bumming me so much. I like my query, I like my novel...I don't like writing things between those two lengths.

    Woo hooo! That is so exciting. I get so jealous when I see these things like PitchWars and PitMad because my manuscript is not completed!! I can't wait until its done and polished so I can work ever so hard to get an agent's attention with it :) ...Congrats on your requests though!

      I used to be the same way! I'll admit, I am still so shoked at the requests I received today. I just hope it goes further than a query and 10 page looksy! But I did have one partial request, too:)

Friday's post

Hey all:) I'm taking today and this weekend off. A very, VERY dear, sweet, and close friend of my family passed away this week. And we just got word that his wife's brother, (whom I love like a mother) died last night. So she is dealing with the death of her husband and her brother. Enjoy your weekend, my friends, and hold those you love close. You never know when they will be gone. I will return on Monday, and will have workshop classes every day next week.

Then, I have to sit back and realize, maybe I'm trying to change the wrong things. I mean, seriously, I can't change time, slow it down. That's an impossible task, so why do I try so hard to stop it? To time back, or slow it down. It. Can't. Be. Done. When I concentrate on the impossible, I overlook the the possible.

I'm no longer going to worry about the things out of my reach. I'm no longer going to concern myself with things I can not change. I'm no longer going to devot
