Fingers Continued to be Crossed

Well, I dropped Ellen DeGeneres another update on our pursuits of becoming published. 

I told her about the English publisher who sent us a questionnaire to complete AFTER they read our Silhouette of a Friendship…From the Inside Out. 

I see that as a good sign… because why would they want more information about us if they could care less about the book?  No reason that I can think of…

I told her about contacting Teen Line and asking them if they wouldn’t mind giving us feedback on our teen book.  Their answer was very sad to me… not that they don’t have the time… but WHY they don’t have the time. 

Teen suicide is on the rise, and they have been dealing with more serious and frequent suicide attempts and… well, they are afraid that they wouldn’t be able to get to the book any time soon.

They got no argument from me.  I rather they spend their time helping the teens…

On a lighter note, our children’s book is being tested by kids.  Early feedback that’s coming in is that the kids love the book, the story, the characters, the lessons…  All great feedback!

So, we’ve just started sending samples to children’s book publishers, to see what they have to say.  I’m hoping they have a child’s heart… or, at the very least, some type of heart…

We’re keeping our fingers crossed…

Hopefully, Ellen is doing the same for us.
