I have a hard time ever feeling like my ms. is ready to go out there. Right now I'm in the splitting/paring down thing with my novel I blogged about. When I get done with that I'd like to send you that 1st chapter to see what you think.lotusgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06663641163048764869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164206822403278866.post-58756514743528800982008-12-12T12:27:00.000-05:002008-12-12T12:27:00.000-05:00Am I the only one who sent you a chapter, or are y...Am I the only one who sent you a chapter, or are you covered in other peoples' first chapters?Bowmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11031226145526664876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164206822403278866.post-16818376154767683222008-12-12T11:06:00.000-05:002008-12-12T11:06:00.000-05:00Justus--haha!

Time to revise." It's tiresome. It's easier to do something "right" the first time, but I don't always know what is right. <BR/><BR/>My decision is to send out this next revision to at least 14 agents before I give up and go back to revising it. <BR/><BR/>Great, I posted more in your comments section than I did on my blog.
