Hi John, nice to see you. You have a great pattern. Mine was a sort of muddy grey-brown

It didn’t take until ten o’clock on this Bank Holiday Monday morning for someone on social media to call me an ‘unemployed bum claiming to be a writer’

That’s a fairly correct description of me. They got the wrong man.

I thought they had a point, actually

Hi John! Welcome. Have a cup of coffee, or two. The barista will do those fancy patterns in the foam if you ask him nicely.

Hello! NOt seen you for a while- How are things going? Have you had comments back on the wip from agenty-agent?

Hi Raine
Lovely to “see” you. I’m good thanks. Yes…. I got feedback on the novel re-write from Sarah.

-
Oh man, you must be on tenterhooks!!! What does “sort of an agent offer mean”???
-
Yes, the edits from Sarah are manageable. I had to rewrite the book pretty much from scratch, so I knew there would be plenty editing to do. I don’t mind. It’s nice to have time to transition between signing with an agent and going out on sub.
-
That delay between agent and sub does sound good. I went out about a month after signing with agent, and was reeling a bit!
Agent… It’s a long story. He’s helping with current one, but wants to meet before signing for long term. It’s complicated and I’m still looking elsewhere.
