Yep, I did it. And it only took…well, if you want to know exactly what it took, give a read to my story over on the Muffin today.
And yet…there’s a little bit of me that feels like Julie in The Sound of Music when she leaves the comfort of her old life to go out in the big, wide world to face whatever’s in store for her in her new life. In fact, I believe I shall sing along with Julie right now. Come join me! A little bit of “I Have Confidence” is good for all of us, right?
So excited about this! And on my way to Muffin Land. π
Thanks, Lisa, though I’m sure you’ve heard it all before! π
Oh my goodness, Cathy!! Best post I’ve seen today … I am beyond thrilled for you!! Huge congrats!!
Aw, thanks, Kelly! It’s been pretty darn exciting, all right! π
Happy dance for a wonderful day, Cathy π Congratulations!
Thanks for the Happy Dance, Charlotte! I believe I’ll join you! π
Oh Cathy, I’m so proud of you…and to think I knew you when.
Thanks, Rob! Yep, WAY back when, right? π It’s still a long way to go, but it’s a good start, I think.
So, so happy for you, Cathy! Congratulations! I know how daunting that agent process can be. Sadly, I’ve been through two. The first one left the business to return to practicing law, the second one left the business altogether. That second one really hit me hard, but I’ve picked myself up and am looking again. You are absolutely right that tenacity is the key. Now I’ll jump on over to The Muffin to comment π
Oh, Theresa, what a challenge! But on the plus side, you’ve snagged two agents–that’s TWO professionals who were impressed with your work and that’s pretty darn impressive. Good luck finding the right fit!
Congratulations, Cathy. You Georgia ladies are on quite a winning streak lately.
Thanks, Sioux! I think we spur each other along–I’m sure all those writer friends in Missouri do the same for you! π
What wonderful news! I’m thrilled for you. You should be singing from a mountain top!
Thanks, Donna! Well, I have been a little obnoxious, singing Julie’s songs. But only at home so only Mister Man has complained. π
Tons of congratulations! Good song to be singing, too. You can never go wrong singing Julie Andrews songs.
Oh, I agree, Beth! You’d be surprised how often I turn to Julie Andrews for a pick-me-up! (Or maybe you wouldn’t. Julie’s good for whatever ails you.) π
YAY, Congratulations!
