A Happy Publishing Experience
So far, I am having a pretty good time with the literary press publishing my novel. The editing process has been going well; I've filled out a ton of publicity forms regarding my own thoughts on how to market the book, I have people who have agreed to read the galleys and give a blurb, and the cover of the book is amazing. It took more than 15 years for this to happen, so I have to say I'm pretty grateful to start out, but I am also impressed with the immediacy and proficiency of the publisher. I want to post the cover, but I think I'm going to wait. One day I will simply post an entry into "Victory over Rejection," and you will all intuitively know that it is my novel.
I am so so so happy for you! You give me hope! It's been about eights years of writing/re-writing/rejections and rejections and rejections/re-writing/getting an agent/getting rejected by editors/re-writing/waiting and waiting and waiting...
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read it! I'm so happy for you and your success. You totally deserve it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for keeping on with the blog and the writing. This gives hope to a lot of people out there who are slogging away, trying to get published. If your success keeps rolling, you're going to have to change the name of your blog to: Literary Acceptances on Display.
Congrats again!
