At the point where dreams die and hope fades away...
Well, not really but nearly there. I got an email today from the agent who had my full manuscript, the last agent who has anything. She said that she thought the idea and storyline was original and interesting and that the writing was good but that she just didn't connect with my main character. So... she's passing. Kind of put a kink and damper on my day... I was really depressed this morning and thinking of giving up on trying (only for about a half a second though :)). But then I told myself to stop feeling sorry for myself and got to one last final edit before I self publish. I'm going to go ahead an do it with Amazon because it won't cost me anything up front and it will be able to get to the widest audience, the wonderful world of online shopping through Amazon. I just need to get someone who knows what they are doing and get a cover designed. So, if anyone knows someone who is really good and won't charge me an arm and a leg let me know! :)

I don't know anyone, but good luck I hope it works out. I would love to buy a copy!
Don't give up. At least she gave you compliments about the overall project. Things could always be worse. It's tough being in the situation that you are in. Don't give up! Never surrender. ;D The self publishing idea sounds really nice though. What genre have you categorized your novel?
When you get your book published let me know where to buy it! I want an autographed copy :)
