Sigh, true enough about EM, Lorraine. I need to get over myself really.
I shall tell Great Uncle Visa you said that. 😉

I think the thing to remember is that EM was written eons ago in terms of how much you’ve learnt in the past year.
Just remember that they like you and you are going to get there. In the mean time try to have as much fun as you possibly can (Great Uncle Visa is not going to be happy but then he is a grumpy git and he’ll get over it 🙂

Lacey – LOL! I like Proactive Woman! Perhaps one of my special powers (apart from multi book contracts) is the ability to speed up the time an editor takes to look at a sub.
Hmmm, must get myself a t-shirt printed off.

Janette – Yeah, Dory knows what she’s talking about. Swimming I can do. 🙂

Jackie – what can i say that has not already been said? i know this might sound a bit strange, but sometimes we all need to be a bit like Dory from Finding Nemo. No the lack of memory part (although, that might have some merit in itself at times), but the ‘just keep swimming, just keep swimming’ part. Sometimes the only thing to do is keep moving forward .

I like what Aideen said! You are Proactive Woman the newest superhero able to sign multiple book contracts in a single bound! I think you’re doing fabulously all we have to do is put those birds in a pie 😉

Rach – I am right where you are. Mid book and wondering what the hell I’m doing and whether this story is any good. It’s annoying hey?

Thanks Aideen! That’s a lovely way of putting it actually. I WILL get my HEA. I’m just impatient though and I want it NOW. 🙂

Somebody once told me that the only thing you should fear in life is being still.

You are not 'being still' Jackie. You are proactive, just like the heroines you are bravely submitting. Just think of yourself in the pages of a book and believe in the HEA you so truly deserve.

Banish that scarecrow, at least until next time!

Aideen.

Can I borrow your scarecrow? Am thinking about doing my own doubt post! I’m suffering severe mid-book doubts lately. I’m steaming along until the half way mark and then I start wondering if the book is actually any good at all and if I have the ability to finish and make it sparkle. Tsk… tsk!
