Holding Pattern
So: I finished a book manuscript.
Yep. Suuuuuure did.
In August.
And the queries went out, and replies have come back. Negative so far. But there's still one out there, and I'm patiently waiting for the response, and the temptation to send a follow-up note reading DIDJAREADITYET? AREYAGONNATAKEIT HUH HUH HUH? has so far been successfully resisted.
The problem: I don't seem able to get a damn thing else written while I'm waiting. Or much of anything read, even.
This is probably why I have a day job.
