I have finished my first manuscript, received feedback, made changes and decided it was time to take the next step. I have sent out my query letters.
It is an amazing feeling to have followed this through to the end, to complete something that once felt so daunting. The sense of accomplishment is almost overwhelming. I am very proud of myself and it was an incredible adventure and it isn’t over yet.
I have to remind myself that it is important to take a moment and feel what I am feeling, to pat myself on the back on a job well done. The letters of interest, or not so interested, will soon be coming in and I don’t want to let that take over my thoughts right now. For now I just want to remind myself that I did it, I finished my book!
What is it called you ask? Galloway is its name.
Galloway now has a life outside of my head, outside of my overprotective nest. It is out there in the world like any little chick has to do at some point, leave the safety of the known to venture out in to the unknown. Have fun little chick, Mommy’s proud of you.
