It’s In Someone Else’s Hands

I woke up with the weirdest feeling this morning. 

I felt at peace and calm.  I had no excessive energy; no desire to work and any of our writing projects; no feeling that I must check this or that; no need to keep pushing this or pulling that…

I haven’t felt this relaxed feeling for a long time. 

It’s pretty nice.  I highly recommend it to everyone!

What brought on this feeling?  Well, it could be that I started back at the gym last night, and I’m exhausted this morning.

It could be that a publisher asked us to send more of the Silhouette… manuscript.  She said she enjoyed what we sent her and wanted to read more.  Her U.S. editor is on vacation, so she can’t talk to him about it, but she’ll look through the material, in the meantime…

That’s encouraging, to say the least.  At least we have someone in the publishing business actually reading our book and liking what she reads.

We still have the hurdle of whether the editors feel it will be a moneymaker for their company or not... and yes, that’s a HUGE hurdle to get over…but

I’ve done all I can do, up to this point.  There’s nothing more I can do but wait…

Maybe that’s where the inner peace is coming from — just knowing that I’ve done all I can do; and there’s nothing more I can do… but wait.

It’s in someone else’s hands.
