Deborah - insent. Yeah I think I'm probably just being insecure and neurotic.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Checked. I don't think they're a vanity publisher - if they are, they're hiding it expertly and they've got Ingrams as one of their distributors - but I can't exactly ping my agent about it, not anymore.

And, prologue is done. I'll send this out to WIP readers when I finish chapter one, which should be tonight or tomorrow.

This is now at 5K words. Moving along.

move out and draw fire

Happy Birthday, deb! For your birthday, I hope you get an agent. And I hope this upheaval brings about better representation and a wider audience, the Kinkaids, Fly, and much much success.

For Nic's birthday, I hope he gets that job.

What is even happening?

Deb, happpy birthday to you and Nic. May this be your year, in so many wonderful ways that don't seem possible right now.

Deb, I'm so sorry about the situation with Barb. I hope it is one of those hidden blessings that opens new doors for you.

Happy Birthday, Deb! (And Happy Birthday wishes to Nic, as well.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Gar, there's a site called Writer's Weekly that publishes, among other things, a list of complaints about various publishers and employers. You could take a look and see if they're mentioned there, just to be safe.

Thanks, all, and a fairly groggy Nic is nodding from his own computer.

Dana, good call - I'd forgot about WW, but plead severe distraction yesternight.
