Seven rounds of edits on Paper Wishes. Two Rounds of edits on The First Day of the New Tomorrow, and THREE WEEKS of Query Hell.
Sorry, but I am just WHIPPED. I have not even thought about Optimal Red in a month. Well, I thought about it. I even signed up far a “Mini Nano” challenge for 1000 words a day starting tomorrow, but if I don’t get this Fire in the Woods query figured out, there is no new writing for me.
Ugh. Anyone wanna write my query for me? Pleeeeeeeese?
But please hop around to anyone who IS posting and give them a friendly critique. Someday I’ll get back to this, I promise.

Queries are hard to write, but I’m sure you’ll hit the nail on the head. Good luck with it and your edits. 🙂
Thanks
If anyone can manage all that, you can and will. Remember to stop to take a breath once in a while. Happy slugging.
You have the best reason, though. Have fun with the edits! (Really. Have fun, or what’s the point?)
Reblogged this on ENGLISH LANGUAGE REVIEW 4U.
I hate query hell. I hate synopsis hell even more. We have to go through them, however, if we want the big guys. I’m rootin’ and tootin’ for you, kiddo, and you know I’ll be there til the end.. you’ll get it. It’ll come and when it does, i’m pretty sure you’ll slap your palm to your face and say “Why didn’t I think of this before. It’s brilliant!”
Did I just hit that point? Yes… But I thought I was there last week, too. 😦
