This waiting is driving me insane. I don't think I have the patience for the publishing industry. I read all these other blogs about other writers and how hard it is and how long it takes to possibly get published. I don't want to wait that long! I'm waiting now six weeks, I still have not heard back from the one publisher I sent my query to. All the while, I have six other books written in the wings... waiting to be read!
I love my story, and love my characters and want others to enjoy them as well. I don't think I will have the patience to wait again if this publisher says no. I know I should try again instead of going straight to amazon and smash words but it doesn't seem like something I can do.
I also just learned that going to a traditional publishing house I can loose the rights to my book. Hell no! Mina and Adam are way too important to me, I don't want anyone changing anything with out my permission. Hence another reason I am considering going straight to self e-publishing.
I wish I had a crystal ball and I could see the future so I would know what risks to take and what road to travel. Oh well, at least this is more like a hobby and not a life support system for me. I just hope that others love all my characters as much as I do when they get out there in the public. ;)
