This doesn't mean they are right or wrong, or as you said, "They're both right" (or both could be wrong). The thing about our creations is that they are ours and that makes them good no matter what others say.<br /><br />I have seen so many awesome musicians and read so many awesome writers. Sometimes it's just luck to be discovered.

I did <a href="http://nancysthompson.blogspot.com/2012/04/to-z-challenge-w-is-for-waiting.html" rel="nofollow">a whole post</a> on it during the A to Z. I never had to wait during submission. I think all the waiting I did during querying more than made up for it. Now I'm waiting for the release. <br /><br />(Hey, see how I used your linking advice for this comment?

The second time, I wasn't on sub for long at all, so it was relatively painless. And now, I'm about to go on sub again, and I have no idea how it's going to go. Hopefully more like the second than the first. But no matter what, the way I will cope: write write write write ... <br /><br />I hope you get some great news very soon, Adam!
