Too cool for subject

I agree with Mab - it's a sad comment that not only do you have to write the darn thing, then you have to sell it to other people. As if the writing wasn't hard enough.

I do hope everything looks brighter tomorrow, after a couple of stiff drinks and a good sleep. Sometimes when things are going badly the best thing to do is just give it up and watch somethng good on the telly...*G*

Yeah... I HATE all the stuff that comes after the writing. Pesky edits, pesky re-writes (and it gets 10x worse after you find an agent to take notice - I've been through it 3x now) - it's the need to do it all alone that puts me off self-publishing though at this rate it's probably where I'll end up.

I gave up and watched Stephen Fry talk about Gutenburg instead - very soothing. Thanks for the advice. *g*
