It’s a cloudy Saturday with an overcast. I’m sitting here, typing on the computer. The computer glitch is fixed. Jeremy at WP emailed me back yesterday and told me what to do. Apparently, my emails (blogs I subscribe to) were blocked from postings. It must have been recently and done in error. Anyway, all is right now and my numbers are back up again. Still not as high as expected.
My manuscript is delayed (3 – 4 weeks) due to editorial assessment. I’m having a second set of eyes look at it line by line. Although not a great volume of pages, I want a well-edited book. Right now, I feel like going into hiding – really! After my next book, the collection of poetry, this may be my last book to publish. I’m not discouraged from writing. The whole damn process and steps to publishing gives me a headache. Writing a dissertation 12 to 13 years ago was a little bit easier!
I will slowly “lick my wounds” and drink a cup of coffee. That always relaxes me. Hope everyone has a good weekend and hope to hear from you soon. Anne
I am glad the computer glitch is fixed. Happy cloudy day!!! We dream of those over in our neck of the woods.

I understand you totally. I am looking for publisher at the moment too and it is a pain in the neck… not very motivated to say the least… 🙂

Erika, thanks, publishers will not be rushed. They do things on their time. I found this out on my first book. I put a rapid release on it today but will probably not hear back from them within two weeks. Poo. Anne

Georgia has been a little dry too this year. Need some rain badly as your part of the country. Sounds beautiful though. 🙂

It’s a gloomy, rainy day here in Southwest Michigan too. Totally a day for laying in bed and watching trashy television.

Aww, I’m. Sorry you’re having a down time. I can imagine. The part after writing can be as grueling as the birthing of it. Glad you got your computer glitch fixed. Dang machines are so annoying.

You are right! The birthing of a new book should be enjoyable. This one seems to be more of a pain. I will be okay. Just part of the process, that’s all. Hope you have a good weekend. 🙂

Hello Deniza, I saw your comment to Meet n’ Greet with OM. I read your blog and found your posts fascinating. I think it is wonderful that you are a medical student. I have a neuro-muscular autoimmune disorder, called LEMS, which stands for Lambert-Eaton Mysathenic Syndrome. Not too well-known, even among the medical profession. I was diagnosed over four years ago. Anyway, I am honored you are following me. I look forward to reading more of your posts. Anne 🙂

Oh dear so nice to hear these words! I hope to be able to help people better once I am a doctor (2more years eek)! We just had neurology this year and studied LEMS too. I wish you all the best, stay strong and push through! :*

I can relate to getting impatient with the process sometimes, but there is no way I could quit writing books. I have at least three more manuscripts to finish editing, and my biggest frustration is having other things in the way of making the time to get them out there. Like you I’m not willing to send them out until they are done well. I’m excited at least one more is done and will be officially available in October! Thanks for celebrating it with me through your comment! I really appreciate it! – Sheri

Sheri, Thanks for writing back and no problem. I have my latest manuscript that is being edited now with the publishers. Should be ready for design stage within 2 to 3 weeks. I am working on another new manuscript right now too. I can’t image having three manuscripts to edit at one time. Keep in touch. Anne 🙂
