I just wanted to stop by and say hello and thank you for commenting on my journal. <BR/><BR/>Rejection and self-doubt are the most painful parts of writing for me, but the waiting really was/is the part most likely to drive me insane! When my ms was being considered, before the actual sale, I was a complete mess. Couldn't concentrate on anything else. Compulsively checking email ever few seconds. I'm a control freak myself, and I did find some comfort in at least being able to put some energy into researching business of publishing stuff -- I think you are exactly right that the best thing to do is to concentrate on the things we can control. I'll definitely need to remember that in the future.<BR/><BR/>Good luck with your books, and may you have as little waiting as possible and plenty of good news on the other side!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4810991750799183100.post-59978823754128343222007-06-16T22:08:00.000-04:002007-06-16T22:08:00.000-04:00Excellent advice.
