What an enlightening ...Greetings Patricia and Judy,<br />What an enlightening and indeed, an inspirational insight.<br />And Judy, despite the somewhat daunting prospect, you never gave up and your resilience is to be admired.<br />The main thing is that you have found a happy balance.

I'd had such an easy time in the western historical field, I thought everyone was like that. Not all agents or publishers are. Well, you know, in retrospect there were a few rough spots in the western road too--especially after my longtime agent died.judyalterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13767466505891813090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757567191914795875.post-3676804940831414612012-09-20T08:47:39.026-06:002012-09-20T08:47:39.026-06:00As if I didn't feel diffident enough about sub...As if I didn't feel diffident enough about submitting!
