I was and am really upset but
what can I do, you know. I fortunately have my parent’s desktop computer I go to
borrow for a few hours when ever I need for writing, editing and blog stuff but
they have dial up internet and an outdated browser so I can’t do uploads and
copyright from their computer. Also I can’t buy a new laptop right now because I
don’t have a job right now and am saving my savings money.
So instead of staying down and
sad about it I am going to keep writing and am going to start entering Short
Story and Poem Contests in hopes of expanding my writing resume achievements (if
I win) and maybe win some prizes or cash too! I have been researching Nationwide
and International Writing Contests but if anyone knows of any coming in the end
of 2015 or early 2016 and that are FREE to ENTER (No Entry Fee) then please feel
free to leave me a comment and tell me about it.
Also I may start sending out
Query Letters to Literary Agents again, which I am not thrilled about but I have
no other choice. I will not go into it but I have not had the greatest
relationship with Literary Agents in the past. The so called “Traditional Route ”
bums me out more than you’ll ever know. I really hoped to try Self-Publishing
first and then perhaps try the traditional route again. But Oh Well!
I know this may sound like I am
whining but I didn’t come into this to sound that way or try to be harsh on
traditional publishing. I just wanted to update ya’ll on how it’s going. I am
looking forward to where my writing will lead and I can’t wait to explore new
avenues of writing.
Everything worth pursuing
should be a bit hard because it makes reaching it all the more thrilling and a
major accomplishment! So I hope everyone out there in everything you do that you
never give up, and that you stay strong. Of course that doesn’t mean you can’t
Cry, Scream, Yell, throw a Tantrum if need be at first but then pick yourselves
up and keep marching toward your goal. A goal that I hope when you reach you can
do your funny field goal dance for, lol!
