Please take the time to write me a review, as this forms part of the competition criteria, thanks.
hi there, that's ok i loved your story and will read more of yours in my spare time. I really hope you get where you want to be, your work is great!!!!
I know just how you feel. I have so many writing projects on the go it's hard to know which one to work on. At the moment I have an opening with my children's books. The publisher has accepted 2, I've got the 3rd ready and the fourth in draft. I could keep going with that as with my sensible hat on, it is the one that has the real promise BUT I've got a blog about my stewardess Suzi, to continue [ and nobody will read it if it's not updated] which I love writing, I want to edit my novel and try and get that out again, continue writing my second, I've got the first chapter of my third waiting to be looked at again and a fourth is nagging me and wants to come out of my head. I'm working my notice from being a photographer, starting up a new Ecommerce company and decorating my daughter's bedroom before she comes home from France. So I'm not a great example, I'm afraid, of how to find direction.I think it's a mixture of working on that manuscript that you think will have the most potential but also are inspired to write so enjoy getting on with it. I do know that having all these creative worlds in my head keeps me alive and ticking and I wouldn't have it any other way, even if I have to tell them to shut up sometimes. Best of luck finding that direction.
Thank you, that's a lovely thing to say,
The workshop was great, but I was the only Writer. It's these people www.thescriptreaders.com,, really worth checking them out . Your work sounds right up my street, looking forward to reading it.
On a 6 hour coach trip home now... Snore X.
