I resisted the urge to put exclamation marks after the above header for the sole reason that it would only further fry my already frazzled nerves! What am I talking about? Well, there are only ten days to go before the winner of the Harlequin Presents Writing Competition winner is announced. For one author this is going to be a life-changing experience. For the rest of us :), we can only hope to get some positive feedback and/or a request for a full manuscript that will (hopefully) place our work in front of an editor.
Although…
In those tricky hours between dawn and sunrise, I can’t help wondering what would happen IF… ;)
I know everyone says the only way to beat the nerves is to get busy with writing something else, but, heh, that’s sooo much easier said than done!
Off to chew a few more nails, especially as the exclamation marks are beginning to mount up!
Happy reading and writing everyone!

ReplyDeleteHmmm...not sorry I didn't enter at this point. Too scary!!!
Yep, Maisey, I keep checking the Iheart site ten times a day, even though I know we won't hear till next week! Grrr! I can't even bring myself to query my full since it's been weeks since I was told Mimi would get back to me. Roll on Dec 1!!
