I want reviews!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am so so desperate for some book reviews of A Bitch Named Karma!!!
My publisher, Lyrical Press, Inc, sent my book out to several review sites, but so far, only one of those has actually posted a review. (A fabulous review, BTW! Check my Reviews Page to read it and a review from a friend of a friend!!) And nearly every day, I read on the Lyrical Press yahoo group, that lots of other people's books are getting great reviews!! I want some of that!! I am so so jealous!!
I know they will come in time, but as my problem has always been...I am not fond of waiting!

The Waiting Game
Life seems to be a waiting game. Every day. You wait in lines, wait for food to be ready, the laundry to be dry. In this day and age we've come to want everything immediately- an instant gratification society. I can't say I enjoy waiting, but I do try to make the most of my time. Hate to rush life by.
But I do hate waiting to hear from an agent. Man that is excruciating! Not so much the query letters...but a partial. It's step one in the journey. It may be the only step you get. It's excruciating to sit back and just wait to see if you'll be moving your career forward...or not.
My partial has been with the agent I met with at The Write Stuff conference for over a month now...close to 5 weeks. Her website says 10-12 weeks for partial requests...so I know I need to sit back and chill. But it's so hard!!
