Waiting for the editors…

An experience common to writer’s everywhere I’m sure, but no easier, for all that. In this case, I was told right up front that the decision whether or not to publish my novel would take six months. I said sure, no problem. Truth? Excruciating! It has been exactly five months today. I think it’s encouraging—they would have rejected it by now if they completely hated it, right? Still, I’m wishing, hoping, dreaming I’ll be spared the agony of another whole month. My mother used to say quite often, “Patience is a virtue.” She was right. Darn it. So, I’m waiting for the editors…

“In the World There Must Be Dust” (by Loretta Sylvestre) Coming soon to Cezanne’s Carrot !

“In the World there Must Be Dust” is coming soon to Cezanne’s Carrot, and I thought that news would make a great “first real post” for my rejuvenated blog. CZ is a classy literary e-zine published by Spiritual, Visionary, and Transformational Arts, Inc (a non-profit). The name comes from Paul Cezanne’s words: “The day is coming when a single carrot, freshly observed, will set off a revolution.”
