Say Your Prayers or Cross Your Fingers

All right; I said I would keep you all updated about the publication process and I have failed you thus far! My agent is sending out my book early next week and says the process will take about three weeks. At this point, I just sit back and wait for her to call or email me; if you like to be in control, the part where your agent sends your book to editors will drive you crazy! But I'm happy that the submission time has finally come. I feel like there is something stopping me from getting on with my life, and so...I wait. It's like Dr. S' book Oh, The Places You'll Go. You'll get stuck waiting...

and waiting...

until you decide you don't want to wait anymore.

That's me right now. Not a decent line of prose or maybe just one in the last two days.

--- me/me/me

"These are the days when Birds come back/a very few/a Bird or two/to take a backward look."
