Before November (and NaNo) gets here I wanted to share three things that made my week, er, weekend.
1- Someone I betaed for said, "Oh my God Jenn, the feedback you sent me is amazing!... I just want to bang my head on the desk and scream 'you're right!' at the top of my lungs."
That's the kind of stuff that makes me feel really good. I'm helping someone.
2- Finding out a friend will be signing a contract with an agent. And it's for a story I absolutely loved. G-d only knows what I'll do when I actually get an agent, because I get so excited for my friends I squee very loudly (thus scaring the kids). And jump up and down. And squee. Did I mention I'm squeeing?
3- Reading agent tweets about my crit partner's upcoming book. I may be jealous. Then again, I'm so happy for her; I don't think jealously has any room.
And yes, I did just stroke my own ego. And no, I don't need anyone else to ;)
To end Halloween:
Love the pic!

ReplyDeleteYou *should* feel really good--giving somebody exactly the feedback they need is an awesome feeling.
