Got my first semi-encouraging rejection today. \u00a0Missing doesn’t fit their needs, but they encouraged me to send future work to them. \u00a0Could be the gentle let down, but it sounded non-formulaic and sincere.<\/p>\n
I’m in a bit of a stuck place right now in regard to the Unmaking trilogy of which Missing is the first book. \u00a0Since it takes a year + to write, then some more to revise and edit each novel, committing to finishing the trilogy could take up to three or four years. \u00a0I’m not getting any younger and I don’t want to spend that much time on something without a commercial future.<\/p>\n
I have other projects that have a energy, three actually. \u00a0One of them in particular has a big book feel to me, but I’m not ready to start it. \u00a0It needs more research and language skills more advanced than those I have now.<\/p>\n
So, I’ll let the submission\/rejection cycle play out over a few more agents and if necessary consider electronic publishing, then decide about picking up Loki’s Children. \u00a0It is about a third written with material from Missing I cut out during revision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
