The Next Circle of Hell

Added! And I love the blurb. It tells me his tattoo is enspelled without spoiling anything. Sounds wicked cool.

dejection

Hey All,
First rejection this morning "not quite right for our list." Give me that list!!! I'll fix it

SIGH. Part of me (the same part that dreams of winning the lotto when I don't even play) imagined the first editor to get my amazing ms would race to the phone to sign me, A+++++++++

I refuse to become more realistic, it's all I have.

Sorry about the rejection, but it sounds like you have a great attitude!

I think the first rejection I received made me cry. lol. But after that, I toughened up a little.

The first one ALWAYS sucks. :-(

But I love your attitude!!

Snappy · Feb 10, 2012

(((ST22))) It stinks, but keep your chin up.

OL · Feb 10, 2012

Great review, Peggy!

Hang in there, ST22...

Hey ST22, if I told you how many times TBO was rejected you'd laugh. Hang in there!

Thanks for all the comments re. the NP review!

There was another one in the Vancouver Sun today which was equally positive but gave away a lot of the plot. So if you've read the book, it's a great review, but otherwise, a bit of a spoiler, I'm afraid.

Here's hoping people remember the name of the book and forget the fine details!

HorsebackWriter · Feb 10, 2012

Woo Hoo Peggy! Ditto, DGrin! WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

D -- Added you as friend, your book now on my TBR pile. : )

Pls everyone do that (if you wish). Tell me you're on Goodreads and point me in the proper direction so I (we) don't forget anyone/your books.

This inquiring mind wants to know! : )

It doesn't happen for most.

Let's hope for second agent. And I agree -- why not you? : )

I am going to congratulate you for the article -- too cool! Speznas for all!

But I'm skipping it because I can't have spoilers! Too looking forward to reading TBO!

YAY!

Stupid Q, Horse, but I'm new to Goodreads myself. How do I add someone as a friend?

OL · Feb 10, 2012

Peggy, there's an icon on the upper right of the page of two heads -- that's the friends page. When you get there, look about halfway down the page at the column on the right -- you'll see all kinds of icons for various email address books and below that a search box. Type the name in the search box. I just sent you a friend request.

Peggy Blair · Feb 10, 2012

Got it! Thanks!

soopykun · Feb 10, 2012

Popping to say CONGRATS to everyone with good news!!! taylor and moon, are you both Lucky 13s, then? Can't wait to see you there

And, Peggy, I still get the Vancouver Sun delivered, but will not read the review as I don't want to spoil it. Congrats!!!!

MadDabbler · Feb 10, 2012

Quick note to shout out congrats to all the amazing peeps with great news. I'm so happy for everyone!

JBuck · Feb 11, 2012

Big hugs. Sounds like you have the right attitude, though.
Onwards and upwards!
The next one could be THE one.

Anyone else on Goodreads? Send me a friend request! Thanks, Lisa!

Request sent.

Sweet Tea · Feb 11, 2012

So excited for all the good news I'm reading - now, will someone be so kind as to let me rub their head for luck?

*bends head forward*

Go ahead!

I just updated my signature with a gratuitous bit of self-promotion. I always feel awkward about self-promo, but...
