But he asked for a full MS so I wasn't going to ignore him. I got an email from myo mom and she said that he was reading it and that he liked it. So more points for me. :) <BR/><BR/>I am prepared to work my tail off. I am actually looking forward to doing things like visiting schools, and book stores. I will be sending querys out if he rejects me. But right now he has the full MS and it is deemed exclusive. <BR/><BR/>Nice to have another blog reader. Welcome, nice to meet you. <BR/><BR/>Michelle <BR/><BR/>PS Weston, Paulette, Laurel, Shanna... Thanks.C.

Do you mind sharing the name of the fellow, or the publisher with us? <BR/><BR/>Don't sell yourself short -- if it's good, a larger publisher may want it too! Getting it out there to more houses than one is a grand idea, and now is a terrific time to do it. Your clock's ticking!<BR/><BR/>I don't mean to rain on a parade, but the UT small presses often don't have advertising budgets and such to really get your book sales going - so be prepared to pound a lot of pavement yourself when it gets in print. :) <BR/><BR/>Oh - actually, that's true for any publisher, really! The more you can market YOURSELF the better off you will be in the long (and short) run. Put your track shoes on!<BR/><BR/>Good luck and congratulations! <BR/>You've taken a huge step!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1179369273914823636.post-17961774651403717372007-12-28T16:17:00.000-08:002007-12-28T16:17:00.000-08:00Woo hoo!
