Keats is out there in the world...

[slashweaver]

It's the end of another month, which is as good a time as any to do an update on my novel... which is now out there in the world... gasp. I sent it out to nine agents a couple of weeks ago, and have so far been rejected by one. Just with a form letter, so nothing to learn there except patience and fortitude. Still, this gets me one rejection closer

I'm sure you've heard it a thousand times, but JKRowling got 12 rejections before someone picked up her book (and I bet they're spitting blood over that now!)

[slashweaver]

Hee! Yes. I'm sure I'll feel quite lucky if I only get 12! Aren't I meant to be able to paper a whole wall with rejection letters...? I'm sure that's all part of the writing experience! :-)

Great to hear you've got it out there! Fingers crossed for you!

[slashweaver]

Thank you, my sweet! And thank so much for all your support during the sometimes arduous process... :-)

This is a good news!
I mean, that you sent your story to some agents^^
I keep my fingers crosses for you, hon♥♥♥
I can't wait for it to be publisehd!^^ And sure, a lot of great writers received full of rejections first.

Oh? A date, a last!
I really hope we'd have it in France but I'm pretty sure we won't -_- *pouts*

*grins*
I so can't wait for you to work on your Arthurian project!
ÖÖ

LOVE YOU
♥

Thank you, my sweet! Your encouragement means so much to me. ♥

If the French theatres won't cooperate, then obviously you will just have to come over and visit so you can see the movie with me. :-)

I'm glad you're looking forward to my next efforts... I will try to do Mordred justice for your sake! :-D

BISOUS BISOUS ♥♥♥

ÖÖ Be careful what you wishes cause you'll have a BabyD running to you then! XDXDXD

I really hope you'll have good news soon enough, hon♥♥♥
You so deserve it!

Awwwwww!!! \^O^/
I'm pretty sure you'll write an interesting Mordred!♥
(Or I'll have to come and haunt you! XD)

*smooooches*

[slashweaver]

I'm sitting here crossing my fingers, my toes, my eyes and wishing as hard as I can - run to me, BabyD!

(If that fails, I will write a totally pathetic Mordred, and then you'll haunt me forever... But on the whole I prefer Plan A.)

Thank you for your support and your good wishes!

Good luck! I wanted to share some useful blogs that I've found. They kind of give insight and tips into the whole publishing process

[slashweaver]

Aren't you wonderful! Thank you so much for all this. I will have a good browse, and work out how to manage this process as best I can. I really appreciate your support! ♥

[cotharay]

It's a wonderful news you sent it *yay*
I'll keep my fingers crossed for you, as always ^^

There was something about this trailer I didn't like. There was something missing, something in between words ... Probably it's just me.

[slashweaver]

Hello, my dear! Thank you so much for your support and encouragement. It means a lot to me.

Actually, I wasn't mad keen on the trailer either. Maybe it's just a matter of us having expectations that need to adjust to the actual movie. And I do keep in mind that trailers can be quite misleading, and give a skewed impression of the film itself. I don't know. Maybe it's more that I don't know Ben Whishaw or Abbie Cornish yet, and I can't quite mesh them with the Keats and Fanny in my mind - though seeing them in action / speech in the movie itself may well convince me, as I believe they're both excellent actors.

I don't know! But I do know I will be attending the very first screening that I possibly can! :-)
