Phew, that is over with...for the moment. Stephanie and I just finished revising the first three chapters of The Dawn of Change and submitted it to a local contest. Now we only have to wait three months for the results. I really like the changes we made though.
Now we get to take a short break before working like mad to make the other changes we've decided in order to make our main characters more likeable. We have three months to make all the changes possible before I am pitching the story to an agent from New York that I will be meeting with at a writer's conference. This is BIG!!! It's one thing to try and convince an agent to be excited about your book through a letter or email. It is something totally different to get them excited about, not only your book, but you as an author in a one-on-one, in-person interview. If anyone has any tips I would love to hear them.
In the meantime, don't give up on your dream either. Keep on writing and never give up hope.
