A Hopeful New Year!

I have to say, this particular New Year's, I have a wee bit more hope than I have in the past years (regarding literary endeavors). I just submitted my final changes to my agent last night, and his plan is to send the novel out next week, to five NY publishers! Umm, wow. Pinch me, please!

Of course, none of this is a guarantee that I'll get published - I have to keep reminding myself of that. Still, I'm one important step toward that possibility, so I'll try and keep a positive attitude.

Here's a wonderful quote to start us all off this year: ‎We will open the book -- its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year's Day. ~Edith Lovejoy Pierce

*raises cyber-glass high* My hope for all of you is that, this New Year, you will each get one step closer to achieving your dream, whatever it may be!
